I'm a wildlife rescue volunteer and we have to bite our tongues a lot. Many injuries are due to loose pets or people's crap they leave out that ensnares/traps/smacks wildlife. We also get people that try to treat animals they don't understand the needs of and will make them sicker or unsaveable when they could have brought them directly to us to save them.
We can't scold people no matter how accidentally or purposefully they hurt wildlife because then people will either leave them outside to die a prolonged death or keep them themselves and they will die or have terrible health problems and live miserable lives. We only let people trained to properly receive patients talk to the people that come in.
We also get some plain insane people that will be kinda scary to the almost exclusively female staff, and we are fairly secluded.
