Overview of Wildlife Rehabilitation

Wildlife Rehabilitation is a meaningful and rewarding field that helps wild animals recover from injuries and return safely to their natural homes. In the UK, more than 70,000 wild animals are treated every year by people who care deeply about protecting nature. The RSPCA alone helps around 16,000 injured or sick animals each year, showing how important trained professionals in Wildlife Rehabilitation are.

Our Wildlife Rehabilitation course teaches you everything you need to know, from telling different species apart to understanding how to care for animals with serious health problems. You will learn how to give first aid, check an animal’s health, keep proper records, and follow the right steps when releasing animals back into the wild. The course also covers the behaviours animals need to survive once they are released.

As cities grow and more natural spaces disappear, wild animals face new dangers like road accidents and habitat loss. This creates a strong need for people trained in Wildlife Rehabilitation who can give animals a second chance. With a mix of practical knowledge and care, this Wildlife Rehabilitation course helps you build the skills to support injured wildlife and be part of a growing effort to protect the natural world. Start learning today and become a helping hand for wildlife in need.
