Things Are Getting `Wild` at the SPCA!
Animals At Heart SPCA Serving Erie County 205 Ensminger Road Tonawanda, NY 14150 (716) 875-7360 YourSPCA.org Newsletter of the SPCA Serving Erie County Spring 2011 Things Are Getting ‘Wild’ at the SPCA! The mission of the SPCA Wildlife Department is to bring into captivity sick, injured, and orphaned wildlife to heal or raise them, then return them to the wild as strong, capable wild animals. Admitted animals range in size from hummingbirds to bald eagles…from chipmunks to coyotes! Spring and summer are the busiest seasons for the department. In 2010 alone, three full-time paid staff members and more than 60 volunteer wildlife rehabilitators admitted 2,301 wild animals from more than 100 different species; the majority of these animals came to the SPCA just between April and September! The Wildlife Hospital, open 8 am – 8 pm seven days each week and available for emergencies 24 hours a day, allows us the opportunity to provide the absolute best care possible for these thousands of animals. In addition to caring for and releasing the animals, Wildlife Department staff field several thousand phone calls annually from members of the public dealing with a wide variety of wildlife concerns. Calls are triaged to determine which wild animals truly need our help, and which animals need to simply be left alone to carry on their lives. “It’s our responsibility as a department to keep both the public and our wildlife safe from harm,” says Beverly Jones, assistant wildlife administrator and hospital manager. “Before taking any action concerning wildlife, we encourage community members to call us first! It’s in the best interest of both the people and the wild animals.” Below are some of the most common concerns the SPCA Wildlife Department receives during its busiest months: QUESTION: I found a cottontail rabbit the size of a hamster in my backyard. I’m worried about his safety. Is he OK? Answer: Young rabbits whose ears are straight up and have spiky-looking fur are old enough to roam on their own. Simply return the rabbit to tall grass. Even though you may be afraid of predators, the only defense a young cottontail rabbit has at this stage of its life is to hide or freeze, so hiding him is the best thing you can do for the rabbit. Infant rabbits, on the other hand, have a smooth, slick fur and their ears lie back on their head. If possible, any babies looking like this should be returned to their nest. Don’t worry – even if you have touched the baby, the mother will still accept the baby back and nurse him. You can lay string or lightweight sticks across the nest in a grid-like pattern and check back after the next dark cycle to see if the mother has returned under the cover of darkness to feed her babies. Not seeing a mother close by, or at all, is completely normal! Any cottontails that have obvious wounds as a result of trauma, or have non-weight bearing legs, should be taken to the SPCA for a veterinary check-up. Question: I have a family of ducks living on, or traveling through, my property. What should I do? Answer: Luckily, this is only a temporary situation that will change as the ducklings grow. Unfortunately, we are not able to relocate waterfowl due to logistics and manpower. Unless the birds are trapped by a man-made structure or the young are obviously orphaned, there is usually very little that needs to be done in order to ensure their safety and well-being. Question: There is a baby bird on the ground. What can I do to help him? Answer: While most people think that baby birds grow up in the nest and then fly away, nature has a different idea. In reality, most birds grow in the nest up to a certain age and “fledge,” or leave the nest and fly to the ground. As fledglings, these young birds are still cared for on the ground by the adults for a number of days while they develop the necessary skill and strength for flight. Leave the bird where he is unless he is visibly injured. He’s probably just learning how to become a full-fledged bird! Don’t forget that you can listen to Joel Thomas, SPCA wildlife administrator and education specialist, on WECK-AM 1230 on Wednesdays at 8:15 a.m.! PRINCIPAL OFFICERS AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS PRESIDENT Lawrence F. Robb VICE-PRESIDENTS Karen Kaczmarski Julie Desmond Schechter Linda Newland Soltis SECRETARY Mary Ellen Hager TREASURER Nancy LaTulip Cornell S. Babcock, Jr. Ronald Benderson Nancy Brock Katherine Cauley Sara Dayton Laurel A. DiBrog James J. Eagan Dorothy T. Ferguson David W. Gacioch Sandra Gingerich Danielle Jacobs Lisa Lewis Margaret Phillips Lisa Pierce Megan Szeliga Kurt R. Venator Director’s Message In this edition of our Animals at Heart newsletter, you will find our 2010 statistics for the Maddie’s ® Pet Rescue Project in Erie County. You can also view the community statistics by visiting our Web site, YourSPCA.org. As you will see from these numbers, we continue to make huge strides towards our goal of ensuring that no healthy or treatable animal in Erie County is euthanized by 2014. As a supporter of our organization, I can’t thank you enough for providing us with the resources we need to make this dream a reality. Our path towards this goal actually started more than 15 years ago. We continually look for new ways to bring adoptable animals to the community, such as our off-site and mobile adoption programs. Our medical and behavior staff continues to grow so we can help animals with medical or behavioral problems become adoptable. And we continue to decrease the number of homeless animals in our community by spaying and neutering all animals before adoption and offering targeted low-cost sterilization programs to our community. Each year, we have watched as the number of animals saved by our organization continues to grow. Along with this success, we have watched our community step forward with the support we need to make this happen. Thanks to our many wonderful donors, we can report that in 2010, 100% of healthy animals were placed in new homes and 91% of treatable animals received the treatment they needed to be considered adoptable. We look forward to the next few years when we can finally say that 100% of healthy AND treatable animals in Erie County have new homes. Together, I know that we will reach this remarkable goal. Honorary Member Andrew J. Rudnick My Favorite Rescue Story A first-hand account of a wildlife rescue from Beverly Jones, Assistant Wildlife Administrator and Hospital Manager MISSION The mission of the SPCA is to create a caring and kind community that encourages fair and humane treatment of all creatures. Our knowledgeable, caring, and open-minded team of staff and volunteers achieves that mission through proactive efforts to address the current status of animals in our community, education of adults and children, rescue and sheltering of animals in need, and placement of animals into appropriate homes. VISION By providing services for people and animals, we empower individuals to become caring, competent, responsible citizens who value animals as a vital part of our community. VALUES Support…as the premier animal welfare agency of our community, we lend help to any and all who need it. Professionalism…our staff and volunteers are the recognized animal experts for our community; our advice is always the most humane and caring that we can give. Compassion…we foster a kind and gentle environment for the people and animals who come to our shelter seeking our protection. Advocacy…we set a shining example for the members of our community by continually encouraging fair and humane treatment for all creatures, big and small. Over the years, I have been involved in many amazing rescues and releases of our wild patients. A very special story involved the rescue of a nest of baby grey squirrels. One spring day, we received a call from people at an automobile repair shop. They had discovered a nest of baby squirrels in the trunk of the car they were repairing. The car was due to be in the shop for several days and the baby squirrels needed help. The squirrels were brought to the SPCA and were found to be in excellent physical health. We knew the best thing we could do for the baby squirrels would be to reunite them with their mother. We contacted the car owner to find out the exact location of where the car had been parked and we drove the babies back to their home. As we pulled into the driveway, we were greeted by a very upset mother squirrel who was sitting on a fence in the exact location where the car had once been. We parked at the end of the driveway, removed the baby squirrels from the car, and walked towards the mother squirrel. She was watching us very closely. We stopped a good distance from her and set her nest of babies on the ground. We then carefully picked up one of the babies and he let out an alarm cry. That was all the mom needed to hear to know that we had her babies! She bolted off of the fence, ran right up to her babies, took one in her mouth and ran back down the driveway and up into a nearby tree. Mother squirrels are very industrious and build a back-up nest in case of an emergency. So even though the car was no longer available as a home, this mother squirrel had a new place to raise her babies. It took only a few minutes for the mother squirrel to retrieve all of her babies. As we backed out of the driveway, we looked up to the tree and could see the mother squirrel watching us drive away. It was a very satisfying reward for our efforts to help wildlife. 2 Thank you to the newest members of our Shelter Guardians monthly giving program! Ms. Diana M.
