In nature it is survival of the fittest that helps keep the local population alive. Although I can understand your concern, it is not a good idea to interact or feed wildlife.

He eats apples off the ground. Can I put some antibiotic into the apples to help clear up what has to be a horrible infection? What type ( clindamycin?) and how many milligrams?
