Therefore, the diseases are classified under the category of the natural causes of the deaths of the animal. When a sick animal, on the verge of death gets inside your house, it will not take long before it dies. • Predators Predators are another common cause of the deaths of the animals. The squirrels might have escaped narrowly in the hands of the predators with so many injuries causing so much pain. Thereby, when the animal finds shelter at your home, it dies of fear and pain.
• Natural conditions This includes a combination of the temperatures and habitation. When the animal gets subject to other new conditions, the animal will surely die. Temperature might cause a state of discomfort to the animal making it die uncomfortably.
