Town Hall - 1/27/22 - Community-Supported Sheltering: Aligning all stakeholders in the welfare of animals in your community - Best Friends
2022-01-27 15:00 - 16:00 | Virtual
Community-supported sheltering is not just “the latest trend;” it’s a natural progression for shelters and communities that want to maximize lifesaving. Where once our industry frequently viewed the public with suspicion, today we are reaching outside the walls of our facilities to engage the community as an important partner in our lifesaving work. During this town hall, Best Friends staff will address confusion around the community-supported sheltering movement and discuss the powerful intersection when the roles of the shelter, field services, government and the public come together to support the welfare of animals in a community.
Following the presentation, there will be a Q&A. Submit your questions ahead of time during registration or live during the event using the chat box. If you are interested in this event but unable to attend live, you can register and you will receive the recording when it’s available.

Webinar - 2/1/22 - A Deeper Dive into Renesting and Reuniting Birds (Part 2) - NACA/Justice Clearinghouse
2022-02-01 12:00 - 13:15 | Virtual
Join us for part two of our Reuniting and Renesting Orphaned Wildlife webinar, as we take a deeper dive into reuniting and renesting birds. Like squirrels, raccoons, and other mammals, healthy young birds can become accidently separated from their parents for any number of reasons, causing animal care and control, law enforcement, and wildlife rehabilitation centers to be inundated with calls about potentially orphaned birds in the spring and summer. In this webinar, you’ll learn how to better evaluate and respond to these calls and just as importantly, learn what not to do. We’ll discuss how long young birds are dependent on parents, different nest types and substitutes, and species behavior related to breeding and development. Examples of reuniting methods for passerines will be presented to demonstrate the basic techniques of reuniting, along with brief discussions of strategies for reuniting raptors and waterfowl.
