New Wildlife Rehabilitation Guidelines

By now, all permitted wildlife rehabilitators and provisional wildlife rehabilitators in Colorado have been notified of the new CDOW guidelines and forms on sponsoring and provisional activities in their renewal notices and with the 2008 licenses that were renewed. Kathy Konishi, Special Licensing Unit Manager, CDOW has personally communicated with many of you about these guidelines, as well as presented on them at the CCWR Symposium in February 2008. These materials were developed to clarify the process and expectations regarding sponsorship responsibilities and provisional activities in order to provide direction to provisional license holders, wildlife rehabilitation sponsors, and the CDOW.
