vertebrates

mammals
^^raccoon tracks
^^raccoon with injured hind leg. Never approach injured animals unless you know what you're doing. Let your Rec/Music Therapist know if you see an injured animal on campus.
 
^^a young rat dying from warfrin poisoning. Dying rodents can bite, so avoid contact. Even dead poisoned rats are toxic to other animals that may eat it. Dispose of any dead vertebrate in the main garbage bins. Wear gloves!
