Squiggy was a rescued baby hyrax that came into my life all of a sudden. She was found alone on a large property nearby by a farm worker. I tried to find a hyrax family that would take her. But she kept running off. I finally trapped her in an old building that I knew had a family living in it. Done. I thought. 30 minutes later I was headed home from visiting a neighbor and I heard a distant "squeak squeak squeak" and saw this tiny 2 week old hyrax running towards me on the path 30 meters away. She stopped between my feet, looked up, and squeaked again at me. My landlord saw this from a distance and yelled "I guess it wants you! It's yours now! Take it home and take care of it!" This channel is dedicated to her and her wild cousins that live on my roof and around the neighborhood. Sadly, (VERY SADLY) after raising her from a bottle, she suddenly passed at 16 months. Veterinarian could identify no cause of death.
