critical role of WILD CARE in rescuing, rehabilitating and releasing back into

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"><span class="MsoHyperlink"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 150%; color: windowtext;">Each year WILD
CARE treats on average some 800-1400 birds, reptiles and small mammals rescued
from situations that prevent them from survival in the wild…whether broken
bones or shells from road accidents, poison, illness or abandonment. According
to WILD CARE documentation, </span></span><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 150%;">35% to 50% are admitted due to injuries and problems caused
directly by humans. They range from pollution and habitat loss to ignorance and
carelessness.</span><span class="MsoHyperlink"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 150%; color: windowtext;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

philosophy and medical expertise serve each rescued animal that arrives at the
emergency clinic and how you can provide appropriate and valuable help for
infant and adult songbirds, seabirds, turtles, squirrels, rabbits and opossums
in distress.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
