Wildlife Rescue Groups


Rescue groups exist for most animal types reptile rescue, rabbit rescue or bird rescue, mammal rescue etc etc.

Wildlife rescue groups, unlike many other animal rescue organizations, focus on the rehabilitation and care of wild animals saved from illegal breeders, circuses, zoos, and many other abusive situations.


They do not seek to find adoptive homes for the animals, but rather to reintroduce the animals to lifestyles that suit their needs and that allow them to live freely, sometimes even releasing them into the wild after sufficient care.


The World Wildlife Foundation (WWF) is also an organization that, amongst other objectives, strives to rescue wildlife.[9] 

This foundation raises awareness of endangered, vulnerable, and threatened species and accepts donations to aid in controlling climate, sustainability and ecosystems to ensure the safety and protection of these species. WWF's notable efforts to preserve wildlife has significant impact on the well-being of many species. 


They offer "symbolic adoptions" for animals, meaning that although one cannot raise a wild animal in a domestic environment, people have the opportunity to purchase a plush toy of an endangered species on the website and "adopt" said species. 

The money raised through this campaign goes towards conservation efforts, ultimately hoping to save these species from endangerment. 

It should also be noted that WWF supports trophy hunting and considers this a form of "CONservation."
