Wildlife rehabilitators must be licensed both by the state of Kansas and the US Fish & Wildlife service. To qualify for permits, most rehabilitators take courses and apprentice with experienced rehabbers. Rehabbers depend heavily on the services (most often donated) of local vets for the medical treatment of the animals. The rehabilitator provides the initial and ongoing care of the animal. |
