Challenge
The erosion of biodiversity is global, and we are all affected by this catastrophe. In Brittany, urbanization, intensive agriculture and habitat fragmentation are the main activities responsible for the disappearance of species populating the environment.
While citizens' desire to take action grows year on year, the number of wild animals in need of help is increasing by 20-30% at the same time in overwhelmed care centers. To respond to these contradictory impulses, Trisk'ailes has created its wildlife mediation service.

Solution
The Trisk'ailes wildlife mediation service assists over 2,800 people every year, helping around 8 birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians a day. In this way, the association transmits the right gestures, and helps to avoid errors of interpretation and action, and to limit unnecessary interventions (capture, placing in captivity and transport being stressful acts for wild animals).
This way, Trisk'ailes favors the least intrusive possible intervention on site. Thus, during the breeding season (March-August), its team guides the birds back to the nest or builds a replacement nest.

Recent result
Since April 2021, Trisk'ailes has already come to the aid of 6062 wild animalsand handled 5886 requests from over 550 communes. It relies on its expertise in wildlife care: an animal carer with 5 years' experience and the management of a care center.
The money will be used for
Each €50 helps 8 wild animals found injured, sick or abandoned by an individual who could be a loved one, a neighbor or yourself.
Goal
From €4,500, Trisk'ailes will be able to provide its wildlife mediation service for the next three months.

The association that reduces the impact of human activities on Breton wildlife
Created in 2007 to care for wild animals in distress and release them back into their natural environment, Trisk'ailes today carries out three missions at once: raising public awareness of biodiversity preservation, advising and supporting characters unsure of how to act when faced with a wild animal, and creating a new care center to take care of wild animals in distress throughout Brittany.

We've helped 1,455 wild animals in 5 months!
Since the arrival of Trisk'ailes in the Captain Cause catalog, our team of enthusiasts has not been idle!
Since April 1, we have helped10 wild animals every day (on average).
In June - a month later than in 2022 - we reached the annual peak of activity alone representing 30% of the solicitations received for birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians in distress in the Breton area and beyond.
The European hedgehog remains the species most concerned. Victims of diseases and parasites due to their weakened immune systems, unearthed while gardening, knocked down on the roads, trapped in our infrastructures or even predated by our pets...
