Wildlife Rangers WA

l have chatted with Local State and Federal Governments, Dept of Biodiversity Conservation and Attractions (DBAC) in Western Australia and discussed how l can help wildlife due to urbanisation and Inner City landlocking.

I looked at involving youth. But there are clubs and organisations getting established in the local community and schools already.

l think environmental cadets is a great concept and needs to have an opportunity to be introduced in to all urbanised towns and schools.

These projects run right, provide the future vets, carers, zoo keepers, rangers, nurses, educators and researchers in the new generations growing up who will create many more profession's around environmental responsibility, climate change and animal care.

Caring for the land and wildlife allows a sense of responsibility and accountability to the animals and environment they live in. Cadets gives a person a sense of achievement and pride, it assists in better mental health, decision making, growth in education ability and research knowledge.

 The next generation of global carers starts with school aged kids becoming aware of environmental responsibility and cadet organisations is a great way to get involved. For more information click here

But there are two few dedicated facilities in Australia which allows for schools to promote animal care and allow any experience in looking after wildlife.

 Therefore, is very much needed within local shires and cities.

I have had many thoughts of how Wildlife Rangers WA would fit in to animal care. After discussions with councils, developer's other carers and my own family l feel the overarching goal will be to advocate and assist in locating and setting up managed conservation areas or nature reserves for inner City areas undergoing urbanisation and to ensure forever homes for displaced wildlife who can't return fully to the wild but would thrive on a managed site.

Allowing for dedicated areas, with bush forever, nature reserve style regulations or conservation style protection, but, with two main differences, a dedicated onsite homeowner, who is licenced to care for wildlife and has ownership of the land or part share in land. Who will provide a relocation and place to re-house displaced wildlife? Instead of the ad hoc poor quality unmanaged, sites or developer off set which is provided at present.

The second difference is, allowing some onsite permanent public educational and research facilities. Which will provide some funding to support the ongoing costs and up keep as well as a wage for the onsite owners.

I am Just about to start seeing how this could be introduced or even better embraced and adopted in to district level planning, Dbca and wildlife carer networks seem very supportive.

I hope l can demonstrate the importance and value of this project.

Especially for wildlife organisations to release their orphans with certainty that there dedication to getting their animals to adolescents ready for release in to the wild will pay off ensuring a future and allow follow up with their animals in a safe local reserve for life.

I am sure this will enhance the carer networks and certainly make not for profit wildlife carers jobs much easier by providing that forever home which we all desperately look for when having to soft release or relocate displaced wildlife.

It would also allow carers and researchers to come together and constantly develop better care.

Allow some form of interaction between the public, wildlife and land conservation.

Will it work in the long term?

We will have to wait and see l feel there has to be a start in the right direction for dedicated managed relocation sites for all wildlife and provide forever homes.
