  1. Hello, I am a permitted wildlife rehabilitator and certified euthanasia technician. I also volunteer with a local equine rescue. I read your article (“And He was Gone, Peacefully;” What are We Afraid of, anyway? Have Animal Advocates Lost their Wits about Euthanasia) via a Facebook post I was included on by a fellow equine rescue volunteer and wildlife rehabilitator colleague. Your article speaks volumes…thank you! As a wildlife rehabilitator, I teach concerning euthanasia and compassion fatigue in our state required Rabies Vector Species course for new wildlife category 2 rehabilitators. May I have permission to share your article with new students and colleagues taking the course? Thank you so much for your consideration.
