Wildlife Emergency? (note: it is illegal to keep any free animal in our homes unless we are trained and certified, have facilities that meet humane requirements, and those facilities have been inspected and certified.) It's important to contact a professional (see ”Find” below). However, when in immediate need,

YAY  Love this post!

Let me add one thing that really is workign for us … education.  I started introducing a bit more human-wildlife interaction stuff in my classroom programs for kids and it is really making a difference.  Teachers are even specifically requesting that now and it is creating a new type of peer pressure - pressure to protect!

Jen, did you know that you can start your own non profit and raise funds and awareness for your cause?  We have a turn-key system that can have your non profit up and running within 8 weeks for a fraction of the cost of a private 501(c)3.  We can help!

Email me for the link to a FREE webinar to find out how!

Cheering you on!
