Training and safety

Prepared for the field

We never send our team into the field unprepared. Every volunteer undergoes structured training, learning essential safety protocols, animal handling techniques, and emergency response coordination.

Whether you are working directly with recovering animals or helping manage local events, you will have a clear role, a supportive team, and the tools needed to operate safely.
