Exploring The Urban Rescue Ranch
<p>“What I found out, was that with pigeons and some similar animals, you don’t need a wildlife rehabilitation permit to take care of them. This one little pigeon that fell out of the nest, I raised it, and this was the defining moment for me — I thought, ‘how hard could it be?’ I looked up how to syringe feed them, what temperature to keep them, and I kept him with our chickens and fed him 3 times a day. This pigeon would follow me around campus; he would wait for me outside until after class, and he would just fly back to me! It was the craziest thing.”</p>
<p>“As time went by, I did realize that I should get a permit because I wanted to do all of that legally with racoons and everything else. I majored in sales, ya know, and I planned on working at Oracle […] but when I moved to Austin, I made sure my roommate and I found a place with a yard so I could keep doing this.”</p>
