No, mother squirrels do not typically throw their babies out of the nest. If a squirrel is perceived as weak or sickly, the mother may abandon it, but this is a natural survival instinct rather than an act of throwing. Generally, mothers care for their young until they are old enough to fend for themselves. If a baby squirrel does fall from the nest, it’s usually an accident rather than a deliberate action by the mother.
