All Of Dr. Hines’ Guides On Wildlife Rehabilitation

Dear Reader,

These articles are dynamic. I write, add and correct them between caring for injured animals, fielding the Texas Parks & Wildlife answer-line and dealing with online inquiries from dog and cat owners. There is usually more than one road leading to the same destination – a successful release back into the wild. If you have questions, if you want to make suggestions, if you would like to correct errors (we all make some) or if you just report what works for you or chat, email me.
