Wildlife Rehabilitation: From Rescue to Release

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 they’re already going to great lengths to rescue and nurse animals back to health.An injured or orphaned wild animal’s 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.

  Wildlife Rehabilitation: From Rescue to Release

  S6E1 Every Contact is an Opportunity with Cindy Daily, Ryan Law, and Jessika Madison-Kennedy Part 1

  Sep 4, 202652 min

  The first two episodes of our sixth season are about how we connect with the people who bring us injured animals. We discuss how we can use empathy, patience, and intention not only to help the person in the moment but to foster a lifelong interest in the Finder toward the natural world. I really like this relatively easy way to remind myself of how to approach people in and out of the wildlife rehabilitation realm. The Earl E. Bakken Center for Spirituality and Healing developed P.I.C.K. So take a deep breath, let it out, and remember: P = Patience. There is someone on the other side I = Intention. Think about what you want to say and the outcome you want your message to have C = Clarity. Mindfulness regarding how you communicate and to be concise yet clear K = Kindness. In a world where you can be anything, choose to be kind Special thanks to our guests, Partners For Wildlife, and The Raptor Center at the University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine.
