2011 Wildlife Search & Rescue Training

Posted on 09:43 by Unknown
The greatest dilemma faced by injured wild animals and the people who find them is the lack of quick response from wildlife experts. This is also perhaps the most overlooked cause of death among 'found' disable animals - something WildRescue and its directors aim to remedy.

In an effort to increase the number of trained wildlife rescuers, we are currently providing our new Wildlife Search & Rescue trainings from San Francisco to Los Angeles. 

From these classes we hope to build teams of rescuers that can respond locally, in their communities. These trainings are also being provided to animal control officers, police, game wardens, and wildlife rehabilitators to increase their knowledge and skills. The all-day class provided information on human safety, capture equipment, proper techniques and successful capture strategies. Anyone interested in being notified of a class in their area should email us. Click the pictures to enlarge.
