SAVE NIBBLES !!!

The story starts with the arrival of a small squirrel to our campus. We were told that the small squirrel was left by his family to die. They brought him and named ‘NIBBLES’ ya the four bit. Like others I was also in crowd to appreciate them for there animal love. But as the days passed things changed, what prima-fascia appeared as an act out of animal care turned out to be a cruel torcher. Since the day the small squirrel came he was given a small pouch to live in, thankx to the generosity of the pouch owner. People started carrying him in small pouch in and around campus as if he is like an iPhone or Rolex which they want to show off saying ‘hey I am an animal lover look I saved the squirrel’ but I see it as they are saying – ‘Hey did u see this, its my new style carrying a live squirrel, do you have one’. The small squirrel is kept either in as small pouch of 3in x 3in or a shoe box and also exchanged among people like a trophy. And that’s not all it appears that the so called HEROS have found a new way to impress and become famous among others. They are using him as a tool to gain popularity. The small NIBBLES have now turned to BYTE. Its time for people to realize that he is a living creature and not a style statement like an iPHONE or Merc. Please set him free to his mother- ‘the nature’. If not now then never as the small NIBBLES will not be able to develop the essential skills he should know to survive in this wild world. Please set him free, he deserves that………

Raise your voice to set NIBBLES free.

Hey Harry, happy to see ur love and affection for nature and animals :)
You are right that Nibble should go to his home, but the people who bring him they think that he is happy with them. They are not thinking like you. They think that they can care for him and they are doing this. but if we will talk to them than only they will be able to understand that Nibble should be free in nature.
But will he be able to find food, will be able to climb on trees to save himself from dogs and all, now at this stage.
Anyways i believe he will find his way. What about all those pet animal lovers?

Hi Neha appreciate you concern and thanks for commenting. I think we should consider whether nibbles is happy (if his freedom is restricted) and not the opinion/thinking of the keepers who think he is happy just because they are enjoying.
