What should I do if I find an injured animal?
user
If you find an injured animal, it is important to remain calm and assess the situation. First, make sure the animal is in a secure area where it cannot escape or pose a risk to itself or others. Then, carefully check the surroundings to make sure that there aren't any threats such aspredators near-by before attempting to aid the injured animal. Next, try your best to contain and transport the animal to a veterinarian or wildlife rescue organisation if possible. Be cautious during handling of the animal as some may be disoriented and confused due their injuries. Regardless of whether or not an appropriate facility can be reached in time, do ensure that your initial efforts don't cause further trauma or harm
