About Robin Kuehn
I am a current graduate student in Anthrozoology, and am very interested in making connections between conservation, ethics, welfare, and decolonization. My background is in wildlife rehabilitation and environmental education, and I'm also learning as much as I can about behavior and training. I only just stumbled across this community, so I have a lot of reading and listening I look forward to doing first!

Introduction
Hello everyone!
I'm Robin, and I'm here to learn! I'm from the northeastern US, currently living in New York state. I'm in my first year of a Master's in Anthrozoology, and am passionate about wildlife rehabilitation and behavior. Most of my work with wildlife has been with raptors and other birds, but I've done some environmental education too. I'm especially interested in efforts to make wildlife conservation work and knowledge accessible to everyone. I'm excited to join this community and learn about all of the great things happening across the world!

Welcome to WildHub Robin! I'm one of the organizers of the room Primate Capture Release and Alternatives that might be of interest to you. It's a private discussion room on WIldHub where people share resources and questions and solutions about primate capture and release. Let me know if you would like to join and I will send you a very brief form to complete.
Thank you for the offer, Elena. I don't currently, nor do I expect to work in a region with non-human primates, so I will decline for now.
Google has an online course builder that's free. I learned of it from a colleague who developed a volunteer training program for the aquarium where she works, using this tool.

Thanks for putting this guide together! I was very confused when trying to make a post on the mobile site, and it turns out it didn't have the whole bar with the buttons for saving and scheduling the post. Even the "desktop site" on mobile didn't have it, but I moved to a computer and found what was missing!
I think this is a really helpful overview. From my own experiences in such an environment, I also learned the importance of recognizing when the harassment and bullying is being supported by the culture of the organization, and thus when leaving the situation is the safest option.
