Preparing for Hurricane Irma

[Catherine]

The South Florida Wildlife Center is preparing for the arrival of Hurricane  Irma. They are in the path so they are moving the animals out and protecting the building until it is safe to return. They are a wildlife hospital, traumas centre and rehab facility for wildlife. They are needed now, but they will be needed more after the hurricane has passed.

I am glad they are making plans to keep everyone safe, including the building. This is a devastating storm and there will be a lot of displaced and injured wildlife when it is over.


I just hope pet owners are taking the same precautions.
There are articles telling people what to do to prepare.

I hope people follow the advice. There should be no reason to leave pets behind in danger.
