While it may be difficult to think about, proper disposal of euthanized animals, including pets & livestock, is imperative to keeping wildlife, pets, AND people safe! If you work in vetmed, animal shelters, with livestock, or at landfills, please make sure you’re following disposal guidelines!
This World Wildlife Day, we want you to know that your hope, fight, and care still matter to 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 of species around the world. 🌎🐾🌳 Let these released patients be the proof you need to keep going. 💪 #WorldWildlifeDay #WildlifeRehab #Conservation #Wildlife #AnimalLovers
