Student talks anyone?!

[emcbadger]

Does anyone know of anyone in the wildlife rehabilitation field that could do a talk for my students on what it is like to work/run a wildlife rescue?
They are all doing animal care as a course and although i tell them about my experiences working at a rescue before i became a teacher, i feel it would be great for them to hear it from someone else! I am struggling to find anyone that will do it!!
Thanks!!

where in the country are you ???

There are many wildlife rescue centres around the country and many of them will gladly come and do a talk on what they do, as this creates local public awareness anf helps with donations etc.
i use to work as a volunteer in one in Surrey and they were always keen to visit schools colleges etc.

we've a number of wildlife rescue centre members in our membership so i'm sure you'll find someone - if you get stuck I'd be happy to do a talk about my work with Badgers - tho I am more involved with protection and investigation than I am with the animal care side

alternatively I could talk about my life as a warden focussing on a vareity of animal related experience - such as extricating a buzzard from a larsen trap, rescuing a shag from a moored fish net, recapturing an iberian lynx etc etc

I know these arent exactly on target and as i say i'm sure you will find somebody better but if you need me to owt give me a shout by pm.
