This wonderful program has been instrumental in helping MANY rehabilitators get life saving incubators through donation campaigns! Thanks to them, 2 of us have gotten regular incubators and are now eligible to apply for portable incubators! This is incredibly helpful because we bring the most compromised babies with us to work. A great big thank you to our supporters who funded our incubators! They don't tell us who you are, but we are ever so grateful!!

A tribute to Fran, our fearless leader and President of WRAM.
It is with much sadness that we say goodbye to Fran Feeney, the President of WRAM ( Wildlife Rehabilitator's Association MA. )
Fran was a tireless advocate for all of us, as well as the many animals that came into our care. Her commitment and dedication to so many animals serves as an inspiration to us all. She was always available with expertise, guidance and honesty. We knew we could count on her to help us with any problem or concern no matter how small, and if she couldn't help personally, she would go above and beyond to find the solution to the problem.
Around this time, we would begin to prepare for our annual WRAM conference. This is an event that included wonderful speakers and presentations, raffles, door prizes, awards, breakfast, lunch and a great opportunity for rehabilitators throughout the Northeast to get together and share with each other.
It was a huge undertaking but Fran was always spot-on with everything that had to be done. She was also so focused on everything that needed to be done to insure the conference was the best it could be and enjoyed by all. So many fond memories....
Her legacy will live on through all of us.
"Though much is taken,
much abides."

It’s spring. For wildlife removal trappers this means money, for many of their customers it's time to be deceived. The rampant deception results in others often needing to cope with the carnage left behind.
