"It was by the grace of God that we found the abandoned baby girl when we did, before exposure to the cold or any animals caused her any harm. She was left in an extremely vulnerable condition, but she’s a strong little girl, and it looks like she’s doing great," said Sheriff Grady Judd.
Deputies used a K-9 unit, a drone and bloodhound to try to find the mother, but were unsuccessful.
Florida has a safe haven law that allows parents to leave newborns at a fire station or medical facility up to a week after birth.
