Yesterday, my family went for a hike up in the mountains. When we were going back, we slowed down to see some birds and a chipmunk, then we kept going. When we got home this chipmunk literally hitch hiked on our mini van! Now we have a chipmunk in our yard. I'm afraid it'll die here or get ate by the chickens. Chipmunks live in the mountains, not the low, valleyish type places. I'd like to know, how can my family catch this rodent to safely return it to the wild?
Help would be most appreciated!
