| HOW TO BECOME A REHABBER |
| RVS OR RABIES VECTOR SPECIES- PDWR DOES NOT TAKE IN ANY RVS ANIMALS. THIS INCLUDES RACCOON, SKUNKS AND BATS. WE WILL BE SEEKING PERMITS FOR SUCH SPECIES AT A LATER DATE |
| PDWR does not charge for any rehabilitation services. Donations are always welcome. We don't remove unwanted pests. We only rehabilitate distressed wildlife. |
| In NYS, must first go threw a series of steps to get your free rehabbers license. Your best bet is to contact a local rehabber. Most are willing to help out by telling you who to contact. Volunteer to help them. Rehabbers are in short supply, we all support each other. Write to the below people, Send them $15 to receive your study manuals. Register for the first exam usually in April, sometimes October. Get a series of pre-rabies exposure shots (not cheap). Build an expensive enclosure to DEC specifications, meet with them for an inspection and lecture and then one day, you are a rehabber. Sounds easy, find a local rehabber, ask to tag along, start the process and wait. It is a never ending job. NYS DEC LAW the Department may issue a Wildlife Rehabilitator License, to qualified individuals, authorizing the rehabilitator to temporarily possess distressed wildlife for the purpose of providing care to sick, injured or orphaned wildlife for return to the wild. To apply for this license, contact the Division of Fish, Wildlife and Marine Resources Special Licenses Unit. Special Licenses Unit NYSDEC 625 Broadway Albany, NY 12233-4752 (518)402-8985 |
