R1718About half the animals at rehabilitation centers are too sick or too badly injured to ever go back into the wild.Many animals have lost limbs,beaks,wings,or eyesight.A bird with a wing that did not heal well,or with only one eye,would not be able to fly or hunt in the wild.When it is clear that an animal will never survive in the wild or at a center,rehabbers have to make a hard decision.If the animal is in pain,a quick,painless killing is sometimes the best way to end that animals suffering.ConclusionRehabbers often use animals that cannot go back to the wild to help teach people to respect wildlife.Children and adults learn about wildlife that live in their area.They also learn about respecting the land so that wild animals can continue to find food and shelter.Wildlife rehabbers do important work in caring for injured wild animals and returning many of them to the wild.You can help rehabbers efforts by respecting wildlife and by calling a rehabber if you see an animal in trouble.One phone call might give a wild animal the opportunity to grow up and live a free and healthy life.This adult female great horned owl is not a silent flyer because of a wing injury.The noise she makes while flying warns the animals she needs to hunt for food,so she can never be released.This predatory bird helps to teach children about animals in their area.Wildlife

dont know what to do,or not to do,when they find wildlife that may be in danger.But some people with special training know just what to do.They know to leave the raccoon alone because it is probably sick.They know whether they can help the rabbit and then return it to the wild.They can also look at the baby bird and know what care to give,if any.These people can teach you how to help,too.Topsy,a

to the wild,rehabbers must decide where to release it.The search for a good location begins long before an animal is ready for release.Rehabbers find a place that has plenty of food,water,and shelter.They also make sure that the place is safe from human contact.Rehabbers must make sure the animal is healthy enough before releasing it.They make sure that it can run,climb,or fly without problems.They also make sure the animal is able to see,hear,and find food.The animal needs to know how to avoid animals that want to eat it and how to be with other animals of its own kind.The first step in releasing an animal is moving it to an outdoor pen or cage.The animal shares this cage with other animals of the same kind.Once outdoors,the animal can get used to the weather and to less contact with people.After some time outdoors at the rehabilitation center,the animal is ready for release.Some young animals,especially orphans,are released slowly.Rehabbers put a pen in a safe place in the wild with the door left open so that the animal can return to it.Rehabbers provide food for the animal until it is clear that the animal can find food for itself.Wild animals rescued as adults are released much faster than young animals that never had to live on their own in nature.If possible,animals are released near where they were found.A wildlife rehabber has some company as she releases this bald eagle.This Tasmanian devil will be examined before its released.Wildlife Rescue Level R56Wildlife RehabilitatorsPeople who help sick,injured,or orphaned wildlife are called rehabilitators,or“rehabbers.”Rehabilitate means“to make healthy again.”Wildlife rehabbers rescue wild animals and care for the animals as they heal.After the animals recover,or get better,rehabbers return them to the wild whenever possible.Wildlife rehabbers have special training in caring for,feeding,and housing wild animals.Many can treat wild animals for sicknesses and injuries,too.They also know how to handle wildlife safely without hurting the animals or themselves.The work of rehabbers is needed more often as people move into habitats whereonce only wild animals lived.When land is used for farming,houses,and businesses,the homes and food sources of wild animals are destroyed.As people move into wild areas,animals are more likely to be orphaned,injured,or killed.People and their activities cause most wildlife injuries.Common Causes of Injury Hit by cars or other vehicles Hitting other objects,such as windows Poisoning Illegal hunting Litter and pollution Attacks by other animalsAnimal caretakers treat a sea turtle for injuries to its right flipper.Rehabber Lisa treats Tripod,a young javelina who was hit by a car.Wildlife Rescue Level R56Wildlife RehabilitatorsPeople

rehabbers must feed each animal foods that are similar to its natural foods.Some foods can make animals sick or prevent them from growing normally.For example,the cows milk sold in grocery stores is very harmful to many baby animals and can kill them.Rescued animals must be fed natural foods so they can survive in the wild later on.Natural foods are most important for orphaned animals that have grown up in a rehabilitation center.If they get used to eating human food or do not learn to find their own food,they may starve in the wild.Rehabilitated birds practice flying in a flight cage until they have healed enough to be released.A volunteer feeds a mouse to an adult red-tailed hawk that is almost completely blind.Do You Know?Meat-eating animals at rehabilitation centers need to eat me
