Wild animal Nurse: We will drive the nature of the wall

“don’t mess with a Swan,” says Lisa Stallzus quietly and urgently into her Headset Mike. The caller gets the phone number of helpers who know how a Swan must be treated with a broken foot. Maybe he comes in a collecting station in the Region, the animal helpers are well-connected; but it could also be that the animal comes to Stallzus to the upper field to the East of Darmstadt. Since the age of 14, she takes care of injured and sick wild animals, mostly birds. On a voluntary basis. In the past few years, it became more and more, this year, the “600-brand has been cracked,” says Stallzus. A reason for joy.

Currently, a stork, about 30 pigeons, two magpies and six crows in the aviary in the garden and on the Lawn behind the house in custody. For a while, an old Swan. For him, she put on extra a Swan pond.
