  More than five million wild animals and birds are killed or injured on our roads each year; countless more are injured or orphaned either deliberately or through man's neglect of the environment. Wildlife Aid is one of the largest and busiest wildlife rehabilitation centres in the country, dealing with over twelve thousand incidents a year and responsible for returning more than 70 per cent back to the wild. Now, in this fantastic book, you can read the about Wildlife Aid's heroic rescue stories and learn about a vast range of wild species; from abandoned ducklings to injured deer. Wildlife SOS is packed with real life rescues as well as facts and figures about each animal - a real must have for any animal lover!

  Wildlife Aid's Simon Cowell and his staff deal with more than 12,000 wildlife incidents each year. From a hedgehog trapped in a freezer, to a little owl colliding with a 17-ton lorry, there are not many rescue situations that he has not had to deal with. Wildlife Aid is Britain's leading wildlife rehabilitation centre and, as such, has become the subject of the enormously successful television series Wildlife SOS. Having been on our screens for over eight years, it is adored by both adults and children for its educational information, its heart-warming rescue stories and of course for its down-to-earth humour. As Simon himself says, 'Being bitten by badgers, kicked by deer and taloned by owls is all in a day's work, but it still really hurts!'
