WELCOME
TO THE WILDLIFE RESCUE COALITION |
|
| |
The
Wildlife Rescue Coalition of Northeast Florida, Inc. is a group of
citizens, volunteers, experts, rehabilitators, veterinarians, and
wildlife advocates who have come together to make sure that wildlife
in Northeast Florida is being taken care of when they can't fend
for themselves. This need is not currently being met in our region
and since the splendor of Florida's wildlife belongs to all of us,
we want to do what we can to protect it, responsibly!

CURRENT
DEVELOPMENTS |
| |
We
have established an emergency hotline that allows the public to get
distressed wildlife information and help from a wildlife expert immediately.
The hotline number is: (904) 591-9585. Don't hesitate to call! Getting
the needed information often makes the difference between life and
death.
Our foundation is developing a directory of resources that
is designed for public use so that all of us can effectively attend to various
Northeast Florida wildlife
issues.
We are also constructing a survey and inventory system that
will be useful for identifying the resources needed to ensure that Florida's
wildlife will be preserved for future generations. This involves the review of
our community's wildlife care professionals, as well as determining the ongoing
needs of our wildlife! |
