l have been a part of a few successful wildlife rescues and educate people on wildlife and environmental issues. We have helped in issues to save wetlands, woodlands etc.to save the precious life within. It is well worth the effort. We can all learn to live and work together. Education is the key. In 2011 I won an education award from Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority for the work and photography I do. Habitat is fast disappearing and with it, many species are also declining in numbers. So many species can actually tell us the health of our environment and alert us to problems we need to know about. They all need to be protected.

Mange can be treated

Same fox family as fox below. Another kit only this one in need. With the help of wildlife rescuer Andrew from Toronto Wildlife Center. And a lot of man hours I spent walking and asking questions. Watching and getting her routine down pact.We got her and she is now rehabilitating at TWC. Mange IS treatable. No it;s not rabies. Rabies is actually quite rare now a days thanks to the baiting programs MNR have done. Not sure if they still do it. But when you see a fox that looks like this. Call your local wildlife center. Look them up on google. They can be cured as long as there are no underlying issues.This little one has a mild case. They get much worse. They cant hardly see and get sores as you can see here in one photo. All they need is some caring person to make the call. Also please note that these centers are non profit. Every little bit helps. If you can. It is our donations that allow the doors to stay open and to help our wildlife friends. They get tender loving care,if need be ,surgery just like us, and days sometimes months of rehab care before they are ready to be released.Just like us. Toronto Wildlife Center have been  absolutely amazing for me. We have lost 3 wildlife rehab centers around me in the last few years that I know of. We cant afford to loose even 1. They are maxed to capacity a lot of times and cant take in any more. We need more opened and government funding would be great. But not likely to ever happen. A life is a life. These are living ,breathing beings like ourselves. They feel pain,fright and confusion just like we do.They are being forced to living in our world. Give a helping hand. You will be rewarded in more than one way I assure you.!!
