The best thing you can do when you come across young wildlife is to leave it alone.
The Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control has a saying: If you care, leave them there.
Taking a wild animal from the wild not only decreases its chances of survival, but can be dangerous. While some young animals appear to be abandoned, they usually are not, with their mothers nearby watching over them and waiting for you to move on, DNREC said in a statement.
