Wildlife Rehabilitation: From Rescue to ReleaseAuthor: Gail Buhl
This podcast is dedicated to licensed wildlife rehabilitators and the veterinarians who support them.Each episode tackles topics about the rescue, care, management, reconditioning and release of wildlife found in North America - diving deep into each topic. Our aim is to give rehabilitators practical information they can use, because theyre already going to great lengths to rescue and nurse animals back to health.An injured or orphaned wild animals journey to restored health and independence in their natural habitat is delicate and complex: We draw techniques and expertise from many disciplines. We'll get into the three possible outcomes for wildlife in rehabilitation: Release, Euthanasia and Placement. Language: en-us Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it |
