Temporary storage for oiled birds or other wildlife in a climate
controlled atmosphere. Small to medium sized birds can be stored
or transported in cages set on shelves. Large birds can be stored
in open-topped plywood pens. Trailer can be used to transport wildlife
from a spill site to the rehabilitation station, or as a place where
wildlife can be held until their body conditions become stable.
The trailer is usually used in conjunction with the Wildlife Rehabilitation
Trailer.
Description:
A 28’ x 8’ cargo trailer with heating, air conditioning,
and forced air ventilation. Cupboards
and file drawers, a sink, water heater, brown water tank, and refrigerator
are located at
the front of the trailer. Heat lamps,
heating pads, sheets and towels are stored in the cabinets. The
swing down rear door allows tray
racks and the pen cart to be rolled in
or out easily. The interior is coated and can be washed down for
easy cleaning. All electric
outlets are ground-fault protected.
The
trailer has three (3) wheel-mounted
racks, each containing three 6’ x 24” shelves. A total
of 36 removable cages, ranging from small
to extra large sizes, are secured to the
shelves with elastic cords. Heat lamps can be mounted
in front of the cages.
For long-term
storage the racks can be rolled out and the six 4’ x 4’ x 4’ prefabricated
plywood pens assembled to provide birds
with room to move about.
Bird rehabilitation
must be performed under the supervision of licensed personnel.
