The Role of Volunteers in the Rescue and Release of Stranded Native Wildlife

They provide essential support to wildlife rehabilitators and help to ensure that injured or orphaned animals receive the care they need to return to the wild. Volunteers come from all walks of life and backgrounds, but they all share a common goal: to help wildlife in need.

What Do Volunteers Do?
Volunteers perform a variety of tasks at wildlife rehabilitation centers, including:
- Cleaning and feeding animals
- Monitoring animals' health and behavior
- Assisting with medical procedures
- Educating the public about wildlife

Case Study: The Rescue and Release of a Stranded Owl
In the spring of 2020, a young owl was found stranded on the side of a road. The owl was injured and unable to fly. A volunteer from a nearby wildlife rehabilitation center was called to the scene. The volunteer carefully captured the owl and transported it to the center.
At the center, the owl was examined by a veterinarian. The veterinarian determined that the owl had a broken wing. The wing was set and the owl was placed in a cage to rest. For the next few weeks, the volunteer cared for the owl, feeding it and monitoring its progress. The owl's wing healed quickly and soon it was strong enough to fly again.
One evening, the volunteer released the owl back into the wild. The owl flew away strong and healthy, thanks to the care it received from the volunteer and the wildlife rehabilitation center. This is just one example of the many ways that volunteers help to save the lives of stranded native wildlife.
Volunteers play a vital role in the rescue and release of stranded native wildlife. They provide essential support to wildlife rehabilitators and help to ensure that injured or orphaned animals receive the care they need to return to the wild. If you are passionate about wildlife and want to make a difference, volunteering at a wildlife rehabilitation center is a great way to get involved.
