Do you have a special way with animals? Have you often stopped on your way to school or work to help an injured dog or a fallen bird?

Have you wanted to do something for a stray cow in distress but didn't know how to help her? Did you call your local vet for advice, only to find him unavailable? Or asked an animal welfare group for help but their ambulance was too far away?

Have you ever watched in despair as a motorbike roared past you with a pig cruelly trussed up behind, not knowing whom to complain to?

Have you thought to yourself- "If only I knew exactly what to do to help this poor creature in its misery?"

Being a guardian angel means being there for all the animals and birds around you in distress, whether through illness, injury, accident or human abuse. It means knowing about first aid out there on the road, in the forest, or in the field. About humane ways of catching or restraint so that you don't make matters worse either for yourself or for the poor creature. About sections of the law that you can quote to book a crime against animals.

This section will help you with articles and information about animal first aid, animal laws, and methods of rescue and rehabilitation.
