Responding to Wildlife Emergencies - A huge thanks to NACA for sponsoring!

Thursday, June 30th

10am to 11am

Presenter: Rebecca Dmytryk, Wildlife Emergency Services

This presentation, generously sponsored by the National Animal Care & Control Association (NACA), will cover the basics of responding to wildlife emergencies, from taking calls to field response and final disposition. This one-hour talk is a sampling of the in-depth modules we hope to be offering in the fall, which will prepare shelter staff and officers for handing wildlife emergencies. Rebecca Dmytryk, has worked in the field of wildlife rescue and rehabilitation for over 40 years and is the author of Wildlife Search and Rescue: a Guide for First Responders. This sampling of her 8-hour course includes how and why responding to wildlife differs from domestic animal calls, from dispatch to field, tools, and the law; understating stress and how to limit it; considerations for human safety, the animal’s welfare and increasing your potential for a successful outcome; basic capture strategies; a quick look at handing nuisance complaints.
