From Owl Rescue Centre
A couple of photos of our 20 000 wildlife rescues that we've done over the last fifteen years. Initially we were just doing it for fun, but looking back now, 20 000 is a big number and one we're pretty proud of. We can't tell you how many thousands of nights we've spent on the road traveling to rescues across the country, never mind the days. Hopefully we have made a positive difference to the conservation status of a few of these guys.
Agreeably, many of them are common species and don't attract the attention of corporates or individuals that would wish to sponsor a wildlife organisation, but we are of the belief that every living creature should be afforded the opportunity to live a full and enjoyable life.
That's something we've had limited success with, attracting sponsors that is, and something we're going to need to mention more often. The last few photos is of us going to potential fundraiser meetings dressed as pirates, air hostesses and rock stars. And that's because we still just do this for fun!
Edit: Just updated all the pics with any info I could find.
It's really amazing so the animals this couple had helped. I've been enjoying their content since I found them. They work very hard, cover a ton of territory, and have a great sense of humor.
They must be at this 24/7, so they must be absolutely ~~living~~ (should have said loving, but they do both appear to be very much alive and well) and dedicated people.
