This practicum project was the implementation of a bird banding program at Wildlife Haven Rehabilitation Centre. The organisation identified the need to develop a monitoring program to track avian patients post-release in order to better assess patient survivability. This project resulted in multiple deliverables, including the permits needed for Wildlife Haven to band birds; a comprehensive bird banding protocol for Wildlife Haven Rehabilitation Centre which they can use in the bird banding pilot program in partnership with Delta Marsh Bird Observatory; a suggested draft agreement between Wildlife Haven and Delta Marsh outlining each organisation's roles in the program and how each partner will achieve their goals together was completed; and an in-depth research paper examining the role of wildlife rehabilitation in conservation and how the data from these centres can produce valuable research for the wildlife community.
