Wildlife Rehabilitation at the California Wildlife Center

Join the Conejo Open Space Foundation for a live online presentation by Jenn Guess, Development Manager for the California Wildlife Center.

Jenn will tell us about wildlife rehabilitation and release at the Calabasas wildlife hospital. She will explain common reasons why wild animals end up being brought to the Calabasas-based CWC and how they are rehabilitated. She will also talk about small changes that we the public can make to reduce our impact on wildlife and how to handle conflicts between people and animals. The mission of the 23-year-old CWC, which has treated over 60,000 animals representing 170 species, is to protect native wildlife through conservation, education, and animal rescue and rehabilitation.

Ms. Guess, who started at the nonprofit Center in 2012 as a volunteer, was hired the following year as an animal care coordinator and then as the senior wildlife technician supervisor. After almost 10 years of hands-on work in the Intensive Care Unit and Orphan Care Unit, Guess was promoted to her current role of Development Manager.
