Common reasons why wild animals need Rehabilitation

Injury or illness: Wild animals can become injured or sick due to a variety of reasons, such as getting hit by a car, domestic animal attacks, falling from a tree, or becoming entangled in human-made materials.
Abandoned or orphaned: Sometimes, young animals may be abandoned by their mothers or left orphaned due to human interference, such as destruction of their habitat, or due to natural causes.
Human interference: Human activities can cause significant harm to wildlife, such as getting caught in fishing nets or traps, ingesting plastic or other trash, and being illegally hunted or poached.
Natural disasters: Natural disasters such as floods, fires, and hurricanes can displace wildlife, destroy habitats, and cause injury or death.
Habitat loss: Habitat destruction due to deforestation, urbanization, or pollution can leave wild animals without a place to live or access to food and water.
Climate change: Climate change can cause extreme weather conditions, which can have a devastating impact on wildlife populations by affecting breeding and migration patterns, food availability, and overall health.
