A Must-Have Reference Book for First Responders
Format: Hardcover
If there is a rail line, an interstate highway, a freeway, or just plain country roads, first responders can be confronted with loose or trapped animals even if no large animals are kept in their jurisdiction. The possibility of having to rescue large animals from highway accidents, natural disasters, or because the animal(s) have gotten themselves stuck in various manmade structures should not be cause for inflicting more harm to the animal or injury to the rescuers due to a lack of training. Technical Large Animal Emergency Rescue covers every aspect of handling large animals in almost every situation. This easy-to-read, well-illustrated text should be in every firehouse and should be required reading for every first responder. Even if finances don't permit hands-on training in large animal rescue, this book will provide enough background information so first responders will at least know what not to do, and what agencies or trained personnel to call for help. I highly recommend! Laurie Loveman [ ... ] Author of the Firehouse Family Mysteries ... show more
