I just signed my "wow" pledge "watch out for wildlife" which is a new program Defenders of Wildlife is implementing. These are the contacts of the people involved with this in each state. It's meant to protect wildlife from being killed unnecessarily in road accidents. I don't know, I thought these contacts might be useful in some way to our caring members who I know are all wow whether they've signed a pledge or not. :Love_Icon

Confused. How does this work?

if you mean the defenders of wildlife pledge, then you go to their website and you sign on.
http://www.defenders.org/programs_and_policy/habitat_conservation/habitat_and_highways/take_action/watch_out_for_wildlife/index.php
warning: they will start asking for donations ;)

but what I thought was important was the wildlife contacts in each state. whether you "belong" to DoW or not, they are people to contact when you have concerns about the wildlife in your particular state. whether it be dangerous roads or construction or whatnot.

I learned at the conference that in Australia their AAA automatically contacts a wildlife rehabilitator when the accident involves hitting an animal. Wouldn't that be an awesome thing to start here in each state?
