Book Description

A non-technical, comprehensive guide for the rehabilitation of injured, sick and orphaned wildlife. I will help to educate you in all aspects of wildlife rescue. I walk you through taking the initial calls, the capture, evaluation, trauma, individual species care, record keeping, housing and release of the animals, as well as ideas and tips to organize your facility, promote your efforts to the public and manage volunteers and visitors. I have included instructions for a new treatment for deadly disease in wildlife as well as lifesaving instruction for animals coming to you in need of urgent and immediate supportive care. It's all here! My rescue is moderately high volume with an average of several hundred wild animals logged in annually since 1997. I release more than 95%% of these creatures back to where they belong, with everything they need to survive. I wish to share what I have learned and discovered and help you put your charges on the Road to Release!
