I used to be with a wildlife rehabilitation centre. Usually about half the animals who come in are euthanized within 5 min. I guess that's why I left, because I'm into rehabilitating domesticated animals.. not wild, where you always have to ask yourself "How long would treatment be, and would this amount of time potentially imprint the animal. Would this injury cause them to be easy prey in the wild".
 
My teacher told me she once had a "pet" hare.
Someone had brought it to her thinking it had been abounded (since hares tend to leave their kits alone for most of the day) and she handraised him.
He was absolutely terrified of anything that reminded of the wild:shock: When he was young she decided to put some wild plants into his cage and he freaked out:shock: Oddball... So he lived with them for the rest of his life:cool:
