3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The wildlife rehabilitators listed below have designed the various sections of this document. Their task was to compose a document and then reach a consensus with colleagues. This was no small task, and we thank them for their many efforts. Members of both organizations were encouraged to contribute; many individual rehabilitators sent in their suggestions, comments and concerns, all of which helped to make this a better document. Those who made signifi cant contributions include: Mathias Engelman, Harriet Forrester, Susan Heckley, Harry Kelton, Nonda Surrat, and Regina Whitman.Special thanks to Tracy Leaver, the chair of the NWRA Standards Committee for several years, as she initiated this process, and then gathered and sorted the many letters that were submitted. Thanks, also, to Di Conger, Lessie Davis, Cheryl Hoggard, DVM, Diane Nickerson, Louise Shimmel, Elaine Thrune, and Sandy Woltman, whose editing helped make the document clear and understandable. Typesetting and layout was done by Erica Miller, DVM. The concept of standards for wildlife rehabilitation and much of the original work was accomplished in the early 1980s by: Pat Adams, Curt Clumpner, Betsy Crozer, Mary Forness, Lynne Frink, MA, Pixie and Robert Goodrich, Michelle Green, IWRC Board of Directors 1982 and 1983, Susan Kelly, John Mulder, DVM, Carol Odel, Vaughan Pratt, DVM, Basil Tangredi, DVM, Kris Thorne-Bolduc, Jan White, DVM, and Linda Wolf, DVM. The third edition (2000) of Minimum Standards for Wildlife Rehabilitation resulted from the suggestions and contributions of many wildlife rehabilitators via letters, phone calls, messages, and conversations at national and regional conferences. Signifi cant contributions were made by the following individuals: Wendy Aeschliman, Lori Arent, Ann Bradshaw, Susan Barnard, Allan & Shirley Casey, Curt Clumpner, Michael Cox, Lessie Davis, Marge Gibson, Robyn Graboski, Deirdre Goodfriend, Frank Gould, Sandy Heyn, Patrice Klein, VMD, Amanda Lollar, Daniel Ludwig, PhD, Bea Orendorff, Clyde Peeling, Mike Pratt, Louise Shimmel, Barbara Suto, Florina Tseng, DVM, and Regina Whitman. DEDICATION This edition of Minimum Standards for Wildlife Rehabilitation is dedicated to the memory of Wendy Fox. From her presentation Mimimum Standards for Wildlife Rehabilitation--It s All About You (2004) to every aspect of her work relating to wildlife rehabilitation, Wendy was a proponent of using these guidelines to raise our effi ciency and improve the level of care we provide [to wildlife].
