     Here is a  pic of my  friend Jutin's hen  Red-Tail's nasty  squirrel  bite. The
system is being treated  with Cipro and the wound and foot itself  are being treated
with Triple Antibiotic Ointment and Preperation H. Both of these ointments have  the
antibiotics in them and the Preperation H helps reduce the swelling of the tissue. 

    He was hunting with a good friend and she caught a Fox squirrel. She was wearing
chaps but caught the squirrel upside down, and the squirrel  bit her from the under-
side!!!! Unfortunately she'll be out of commission for several weeks or months until
the wound fully heals. The birds name is Rani which means Queen in Gujurati, Jutin's
native Indian language.
