http://slightlyviral.com/what-this-man-found-in-a-bag-of-mulch/
A Florida man opened a new bag of mulch and, to his surprise, he found a baby squirrel inside. We found the man on Reddit, where he is known by the handle Nadtacular, but now the Internet is starting to know him because of his compassion. The baby squirrel appeared to be only days old when he found it. It was so young, he initially mistook it for a mouse or rat. But he decided to take care of it, and lucky for us, document his its development.
....
As you can see from the photographs, a bond developed between the man and the squirrel, which he named Zip. There is no definitive answer to how baby Zip found its way into the bag of mulch, but its safe to say Zip appears to be enjoying his new home. Its also safe to say that this mans selfless act has restored our hope in humanity. Way to go!
