Q: Emma, what is your role here?I’m team B lead. Supervisor. Training newbies, doing float tasks like feeding baby mammals while they focus on staying on the phone.

Once the snow flies, which is traditionally the end of October or the beginning of November — when we have our book sale fundraiser — that’s usually when things quiet down, and so then we’re getting in fewer animals over the winter. In the summertime, we have up to 15 staff dealing with the animals because we’re feeding the baby birds every half an hour, and having to swim the ducklings and feeding the mammals every two to three to four hours through the night. In the wintertime we have one or two people usually on, and they can manage.
Volunteers do the morning rounds of feeding, cleaning and tending to the animals being rehabilitated.
