Wildlife rehabilitation involves the temporary care and treatment of injured, sick and orphaned wildlife. This can be a rewarding wildlife career choice. Rehabilitation is necessary in order to improve the chances of survival for sick or injured animals when they are ready to be released back to an appropriate habitat.
It is usually the case that wild animals require rehabilitation because of human acts such as road traffic accidents, displacement through destruction of wildlife habitat through construction, poisoning, entanglement in fences, traps, and fishing line, etc. The work involves cleaning and physically providing therapy/exercise sessions for the animals in your care – and some of the patients can be large and heavy!
Our Wildlife Rehabilitation Diploma course has specifically been designed for this type of work.
