orphaned baby chipmunks

Sioux Falls SD

Description

after all the storming and violent winds... two baby chipmunks were found on the ground, and another one was already dead. I've brought them in considering they would die out there. They seem close to being newborns but not quite, they are pretty helpless. I've been keeping them warm and stimulating them to go potty but I really don't have the time to care for them. I also do not have money to spend on milk replacement formula as I literally only have $2. I know that without milk, they can die. I've waited for their mom to show up but it's been two days now and nothing. I've tried to search for wildlife rescue or something but I've been unlucky ( I am not originally from this state and just moved here and I'm quite surprised that for a state with lots of wildlife, there seems to be no rehabilitation centers for them ) If anyone can lead me towards the right direction, I'd appreciate it. I know sometimes you just gotta let nature takes its course... but I am a firm believer that sometimes you have to give creatures a chance of survival if you can help it!
