Secret World Wildlife Rescue had its first Wildlife Conference at the Oak Tree Arena last weekend with 150 delegates attending from all over the country.
The first day had a theme of ‘Caring for Wildlife in the Wild’ with speakers highlighting the pressures being placed upon wildlife, plus the challenges that some species now face.
The second day focussed on ‘Caring for Wildlife in Rehabilitation’. This centred around the work carried out responsibly to return casualties to the wild.
New methods of care, standards of facilities and veterinary advice made a very valuable day for many delegates involved with wildlife care.
The conference was organised by Dr Liz Mullineaux and hosted by Secret World.
“This has proved to be so successful’, Pauline Kidner, Founder of Secret World, told Burnham-On-Sea.com.
“We hope it will now be an annual event. Secret World has always made sure that education through our work opens opportunities for both adults and children, and this just gives us another platform to pass knowledge on.”
