The role of professional wildlife rehabilitation in conservation

The role of professional wildlife rehabilitation in conservation goes way beyond the dealing with the ugly side of human-wildlife conflict.

Wade and Tammy dive deeper by unpacking how professional wildlife rehabilitation centres can contribute to wildlife conservation through species reintroduction programs, research projects, citizen science, community engagement, improving legislation, and understanding of species biological anomalies.
