Hazel is an educational tool only. The information provided by Hazel is based on The Comprehensive Squirrel Bible by Tye Lombardi and is intended to support — not replace — the guidance of licensed wildlife veterinarians and certified wildlife rehabilitators.
Not a substitute for professional care. Hazel does not provide veterinary advice. All medication dosing, medical treatment decisions, and emergency care must be determined and administered by a licensed wildlife veterinarian based on the individual animal's condition.
No liability. Tye Lombardi, the creator of Hazel and The Comprehensive Squirrel Bible, assumes no liability for outcomes resulting from information provided by this tool. Wildlife rehabilitation involves inherent risks, and users accept full responsibility for the care decisions they make.
Emergency situations. If an animal is in critical condition, contact a licensed wildlife rehabilitator or wildlife veterinarian immediately. Do not rely solely on Hazel in life-threatening situations.
Accuracy. While every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of information in Hazel's knowledge base, wildlife rehabilitation science evolves. Always verify protocols with current professional guidance.
By using Hazel, you acknowledge and agree to these terms.
