If you respect and admire wild animals, wildlife rehabilitation might just be the calling for you. There is much more to the job than just a love for wildlife. Successful rehabilitation and release of sick, injured and orphaned wild animals requires specific skills and knowledge, as well as legal permits and licenses.What is Wildlife Rehabilitation?Rehabilitation is a major part of PAWS’ work with wildlife. We have established our expertise at PAWS Wildlife Center by working with more than 140,000 wild animals of 260 different species over the past 30 years.The work can be stressful and demanding. But seeing an animal recover and return to a wild and free life makes it all worthwhile.
