RESCUE

Sick and injured seabirds are either collected by SANCCOB staff following notifications from the public or brought directly to one of our Centres by dedicate First Responders and members of the public. We also work with SANParks, CapeNature and Robben Island Museum Colony Managers who monitor established seabird nesting sites and identify abandoned chicks and eggs. In emergency situations, such as a major oil spill, our 24 hour rescue service is augmented by teams of trained volunteers.
