The Wild Animal Rehabilitation Centre (WARC) in Metchosin, BC, is a non-profit organization dedicated to the care and rehabilitation of injured, sick, and orphaned wild animals. It operates 365 days a year, providing a vital service to the region. The centre is currently facing a surge in patients, particularly during the spring and summer months. This surge is attributed to the natural increase in wildlife activity during these seasons, as well as the fact that many animals are injured or orphaned due to human activities. The centre’s website states that 70% of its patients are admitted during the spring and summer months.

The BC SPCA is urging residents to be mindful of the baby ducks that were found abandoned in a local park. However, the organization emphasizes that not all young animals left alone are abandoned. The BC SPCA is working with the local authorities to ensure the safety and well-being of the baby ducks. They are providing them with food and shelter, and they are working to find them a suitable foster home. The organization is also reminding residents that it is important to be mindful of the welfare of all animals, especially those that are vulnerable.
