Our co-founder and executive director writes: Toda Our co-founder and executive director writes: Today provided me with a heartwarming reminder of why we at Animal Help Now do what we do.
I was on the road in my car, on a divided thoroughfare (two lanes each way, grass median) in suburban Louisville, CO. I was heading north in the left lane, when I saw a rabbit (alive, upright) ahead of me, close to the median but in the road.
I slowed to a stop, maybe 10 feet short of her, put on my flashers, got out of the car, and slowly approached, at which point (to my great relief) she scooted right past me and under my car. Stunned or scared, very likely not injured.
Traffic was light, and a few cars slowed as they passed, but the driver of one pulled up close behind me, shortly after I'd stopped, put on her flashers and got out to help. She had somehow seen the bunny while traveling the opposite direction and u-turned to help the endangered little one even before I had pulled over. (There must be a word in the English language for the feeling of gratitude and relief when happening upon a compatriot, especially in crisis. Anyone?)
Long story short: My compatriot and I coordinated to identify gaps in traffic and during such gaps to strongly encourage the rabbit to get out from under my car and off the road. The next thing we knew the bunny was gone, well off of the concrete and into the welcoming grass, dashing then into the safety of the open spaces to the east.
Takeaways:
A very scared bunny who came to her senses, mustered up her courage and took a chance dashing across two lanes to safety.
A fellow compassionate human who stopped to help an animal in need.
A fresh appreciation of how much the compassionate public relies on wildlife rehabilitators. (I knew we'd have help if we needed it.)
A reminder of why I do what I do and a reinvigorated love and appreciation for my teammates at Animal Help Now.
A happy ending to a fraught situation.

Our executive director writes: Stressful here toda Our executive director writes: Stressful here today in Boulder County Colorado with the very strong winds. Too reminiscent of December 2021, when the Marshall Fire took my home. Forever grateful I was home that day and able to evacuate my beloved Jack and Lura. Began work within a week with my teammates at Animal Help Now to develop a pet evacuation app. It's up and running. Please take 10 minutes to download and set up. Something like 85% of USians live in areas that are disaster prone.

Those most traumatized by the Marshall Fire were those who couldn't get home to evacuate their pets. #PetSafety #disasterpreparedness
"This baby kestrel was in the middle of the road a "This baby kestrel was in the middle of the road and almost got hit by a vehicle."

Roger was driving in Poland, Maine, when he spotted this nestling on the road. He acted quickly and carefully to get the bird to safety, into a carrier in his car. Then he contacted Animal Help Now for help.

If not for Roger, this little angel likely wouldn't have survived much longer.

If not for Animal Help Now, Roger may not have found the emergency help he needed.

*If not for you*, Animal Help Now simply wouldn't be the world's most effective wildlife emergency service. (Available in US only.)

This past summer, there were well over a thousand such rescues every day involving Animal Help Now's Wildlife Emergency service.

Over the summer, our wildlife emergency service was accessed across the US, on average, once a minute. This doesn't just happen.
