Advocacy
Our members and supporters know Wildlife Rescue
& Rehabilitation (WRR) as a place where suffering animals
have long been able to find compassionate and appropriate
care. Together we've been able to save many lives and educate
a broad portion of the regional population about the plight
of these creatures. Our mission to end the suffering of non-human
animals doesn't end with wildlife rehabilitation, however.
Just as wild animals have adapted so well
to live in our human-altered environments, there are many,
many ways we can adapt our behaviors to make the world a better
place for all animals.
WRR urges people to work to end animal testing
and the wildlife "pet" trade, for instance, and
to push their lawmakers to toughen state and federal penalties
for animal cruelty and abuse. We encourage fellow animal lovers
to transition to plant-based diets and become more aware of
the horrors of the factory farming system.
