Morgane Ristic and Paul Reynolds, the new managers of The New Arc wildlife rescue centre near Ellon In this episode we talk about all things related to running a rehab, but more broadly about standards of welfare, euthanasia thresholds, the challenges of doing everything and how we need to talk about our mistakes. A really interesting conversation! https://www.newarcwildliferescue.org/ Morgane's very informative Instagram https://www.instagram.com/wildlife_rescue_adventure/ https://www.bwrc.org.uk/

We can all remember the horrific images of birds covered in thick black oil. Ireland is an island nation and yet we have no plan to save wildlife in the event of an oil spill. Pauline Beades and the Oiled Wildlife Response Network work to change that. https://oiledwildliferesponse.ie/

We Help Wildlife speaks to Dan, manager of Kildare Wildlife Rescue which in just 18 months has helped over 5000 cases, released 1200 animals back to the wild and inspired dozens of volunteers. Listen to their stories and get the latest news about Kildare Wildlife Rescue. Kwr.ie

This episode is the long awaited interview with Dan Donoher. Dan has been working in animal rescue for 17 years and has been a pioneer of Wildlife rehabilitation in Ireland for almost a decade. This is the first part of an interview where we chat about how he got started in rescue and rehab, the evolution and improvement of rehab, how he keeps the team of 80 volunteers motivated and well trained, and lots more. Part 2 will follow next week.

International Earth Day Episode, what you can do if you find an animal this orphan season, Subh the fox with the glass collar, and a response to Tiger King!

The top 5 things you can do to help wildlife while you're stuck in lockdown! Also, a description of wildlife and corona. We've all heard about the bat-soup-guy, but in this episode I talk about some interesting aspects of the human-wildlife dynamic and the lessons the Coronavirus pandemic has taught us.

Hey, Just a little bonus podcast in case you're staying home and want something to listen to!! This episode is a broad explanation about; - rescue, - what a vet will be thinking about if you bring an injured animal to her, - I describe some of the rescues and sanctuaries around Ireland that help wildlife, - some challenges about hunters, animal abusers and snaring, - the difference between 'hard' and 'soft' release, - and something you can do if you're limiting your social interactions.
