Unless you're sure his path out of the burrow is clear, I wouldn't use water to get him out.
I second that.Unless you're sure his path out of the burrow is clear, I wouldn't use water to get him out.
Not necessarily. Under hot conditions they might stay underground for months at a time in nature. I agree with the suggestion that you try to lure it out with food, but I'd really hesitate to try broiling or flooding it out... unless you already suspected that this animal was ill or injured.As Tom said, they would normally come out early morning or late afternoon to graze. They would not stay in the burrow for 8 days.
