Inspiration in Action for Wildlife Conservation

OMG Belize Wildlife & Referral Clinic is in the final for the contest!

But how did I get there?

What I love about my work in wildlife rescue and conservation is that there is nothing usual about it. I never know what might happen the next day or moment and there is rarely any routine. Of course, I have to admit that that is very challenging sometimes too. But most times it keeps things interesting and exciting!
