ANIMALS IN CRISIS

An Introduction to Safely Helping

Domestic and Wild Animals in Emergencies

 
 

MORE INFORMATION COMING SOON, PLEASE CHECK BACK SOON


Humane Cohabitation

Safety First! Your own safety first, then the safety of the animal

ALL animals can bite, most will ONLY bite when provoked

Each animal is an individual, be prepared for the unexpected


Remember: All creatures just want to:

Live, eat, procreate, Not be eaten and exist in peace

A little understanding can avoid dangerous situations


Check Your Surrounding

Look for possible hazards, escape routes, avoid cornering/threatening


Animal Encounters

Domestic: Dogs, Cats, Small Pets, Farm Animals- Secure them at HOME

Wild: Trapped, Disoriented, Injured- If they are ok set them FREE


Avoid Stress

Stay calm, it helps the animals and it helps you remain safe and focused

Animals are more likely to be reactive when under stress, just like we are

NEVER force an animal, guide them, gently lead them


Rules of the Wild Side

Rule #1 – Teenagers Make BAD Decisions

Rule #2 – Hell Hath No Fury Like A Mother…

Rule #3 – Motivation Is To NOT Be Eaten

Rule #4 – They Do Not Know We Are There To Help


Breathe

The best preparation for dealing with an animal is distress is a deep breath


THANK YOU for taking the time to learn about our local and domestic animals that may need you in a disaster. A lot of this information will be loaded to my website in the near future, www.NoPawLeftBehind.org and do not hesitate to ask any questions you may have.
