Sask breeder opposes ban on potentially invasive degus

  SASKATOON Cradled in her hands as she takes her fingers to scratch a small degu’s head, a Saskatoon woman says she’s going to fight to keep her pets.

The Saskatchewan Ministry of Environment issued the reminder because well-intentioned people can interfere with young wildlife, such as baby ducklings, rabbits, songbirds or fawns, when they are in their natural habitats. While someone could have good intentions such as believing the animal might be hurt or orphaned, the ministry says this is often not the case. In nature, young animals and birds are purposely placed into seclusion by their mothers to protect them from predators, with their mother watching from not far away.
