Our Wildlife Search and Rescue Basic Skills class is designed for those who frequently encounter injured animals - like animal control officers, park rangers, wildlife officers and wildlife rehabilitators, but the class is basic enough for the novice interested in getting involved in working with wildlife.
The all day training covers laws and regulations, human safety, capture strategies and basic animal first aid.
This year, we've added a second day for hands on practice.
We've also added two new classes, Advanced Wildlife First Aid and a class on Reuniting Wildlife.
We offer these trainings once a year to help boost local skills and recruit new volunteers for our state-wide team of First Responders. This year's schedule of basic training classes is as follows:
