Carolina Wildlife Center is a non-profit organization that helps injured and orphaned wildlife return back to the wild. Recently, the organization was inundated with donations after they posted online: "EMERGENCY... We have run out of ACORNS!" /VCG Photo

The organization said: "We have run out of acorns at the Center. We have taken in more than 900 squirrels this year and they have wiped out our nut stash." /VCG Photo

A large amount of generous members of the public soon donated many nuts to the South Carolina-based charity. /VCG Photo

A little flying squirrel was captured standing in a pool of nuts. Helen Dyar, Operations Coordinator said that "We have had such a generous response to our call for acorns that we now have enough to get us through this squirrel season and our freezers are full of nuts to help feed our spring babies!” /VCG Photo
