I do wildlife rehabilitation for my state, got my permit about five years ago. I'm allowed to work with all animals native to Massachusetts, except deer, coyotes and bear (they require federal licensing and there's some crazy rules that go along with them) and migratory birds (which also requires a federal license, which I've filed the paperwork for just a couple weeks ago). I'm not allowed to take money from people, unless I get hired at a wildlife rehab facility, so it's purely on my own dime lol. I make all my money painting stuff for people, but If the opportunity ever presents itself that I can find a paid job doing this, I'll never paint again! The animals take up most of my time in the spring and summer anyways, and I'm tired of painting sand dunes and beach scenes for tourists.Originally Posted by redshepherd
He's still alive this morning, and a bit more alert than he was last night. I'm going to absorb some caffeine into my system and then get to work with him and the other animals I've got in my shed-hospital
