Welcome to The BRITISH WILDLIFE HELPLINE
This site has information about how to provide short term care for sick, injured or orphaned British wild animals and birds until a suitable rescue or rehab centre is found. You are not allowed to keep a wild animal or bird as a pet and MUST do everything possible to get it treated, rehabilitated and released back to the wild.
Wild animals and birds may seem cute and appealing when young but as they mature and develop, they could prove destructive and possibly dangerous to the inexperienced. Please let them live out their lives naturally in the wild and do not try to tame them.
Please search here Site Index for your nearest rescue centre, info and advice.
In an emergency: please contact your nearest wildlife centre or vet as soon as possibleNon-urgent
enquiries ONLY leave a message at :
mail@britishwildlifehelpline.com
- I'll respond as soon as I can but will be away from my desk a lot from May until late September.
- Please note: cat victims, hedgehogs and casualties with an open wound MUST go to a rescue centre straight away.
- Cat victims and those with wounds because they will need antibiotics as soon as possible
- Hedgehogs because they are hard to diagnose without anaesthetic and often suffer internal injuries.
