  • 2 people are interested

Wild Again is a growing non profit animal rescue whose mission is to protect animals from unnecessary harm, neglect &/or abuse because All Life Has Value. This organization specializes in wildlife rehabilitation & release.

90% of intakes are neonate wildlife such as squirrels, bunnies, raccoons, opossums... The needs of neonates are very specific and round the clock feedings are necessary. They are on alternate heat sources and require close monitoring as well. As they grow up their demands change as they are prepared for life in the wild.

Wild Again is also home to many domestic rescues in need of help due to abuse, neglect, health issues or were rendered due varying circumstances. Horses, geese, goat, pig, parrots, dogs, cats are a few of the long term residents.

Wild Again is looking for enthusiastic dedicated people willing to make a consistent weekly time commitment caring for the animals. This team must of course share the same beliefs for the organizations mission. They must also relate well with people.

Tasks are divided into 2 categories: (you can select one area or both)
1) barn care for the domestic farm animals
2) wildlife rescue rehabilitation & release

General duties include:
Barncare:
*Cleaning horse stalls *experienced volunteers may feed, groom & turn out or bring in horses *care
for other farm animals such as pig, goat, geese, cats...
*This job entails being outside and inside the large barn (all types of weather)
*Must be able to lift 40 lbs

Wildlife: (MUST BE 18 years old by law to handle wildlife.) This is a great job for vet techs or interns also!
*Volunteers are needed to fill various shifts 24 hours a day for feeding, cleaning and monitoring the

*Qualified volunteers may help with vaccinations, injury care & other medical necessities.
*Food prep for the animals
