Veterinary Consulting for Wildlife Conservation Translocations

VetRewild supports translocation projects worldwide, with the goal of restoring wildlife populations, species, and the ecosystems they belong to.

Rewilding with health at the core

Our planet's biodiversity is vanishing at an alarming rate. Wildlife reintroductions are increasingly used to improve the conservation status of endangered species and to rebuild healthy ecosystems with abundant native fauna.

VetRewild supports translocation projects worldwide, with the goal of restoring wildlife populations, species, and the ecosystems they belong to.

Our mission is to provide specialist veterinary expertise at every stage of the translocation process from early planning and captive breeding to release and post-release monitoring. With our science-based, experience-driven, and individualized approach, we help conservation teams re-establish healthy, self-sustaining wildlife populations.

Whether your rewilding project involves mammals, birds, reptiles, or amphibians in any corner of our planet we look forward to working with you. Contact us to learn more about how we can help.

Disease Risk Analysis (DRA)

Disease is one of the most significant challenges in wildlife translocations, with the potential to jeopardize project outcomes.

DRA is a structured, evidence-based process that supports informed decision-making throughout translocation planning. It aims to develop practical strategies to prevent both infectious and non-infectious disease risks in relocated animals, other wildlife, domestic animals, and humans.

Training and capacity building for field teams

We offer custom-designed training sessions to enhance your team 's capacity in wildlife health and monitoring, like for example:

Sample collection and storage
Necropsy techniques
Basic on-site diagnostics and field laboratory methods
Biosecurity

These trainings are tailored to your project’s specific needs and target species.

Veterinary support throughout the translocation process

We provide veterinary expertise at every stage of the translocation process — from planning to post-release.

Our support includes:

Assisting in the design of the overall translocation plan,
Developing protocols for health monitoring and disease prevention,

Fundraising for healthy translocations

We believe that a lack of funding should never be a barrier to following best practices in animal health and welfare.

That’s why we support you in identifying relevant grants and preparing strong funding proposals — so your reintroduction project can fully benefit from professional wildlife veterinary expertise.
