To rescue/rehab wildlife here you need either a state liscense for mammals or state and federal liscense for migratory birds. All wildlife has to be returned to the wild once rehabbed and healthy. Any animal that cannot be released has to have a letter from a vet stating it is nonreleasable and have a permit issued to keep such animal from the wildlife commission.
I got to agree with rav on the distinction between adoption and rescue. It would not be a rescue to take in a animal that just needs to find a new home. If such animal is in bad health and needs rehabbed, then it is a rescue. I have taken in several snakes to assist in adopting out this year but didnt consider them as rescues.
