We can get siloed in our work and see other types of animal care organizations as distinct and disparate. While there are underlying differences, there are also many similarities. From behavior and enrichment to operating procedures and accountability, there's a lot we can learn from each other. The connection between companion animal rescue and sanctuary is well understood, but what about connections between shelters and zoos or between companion animals and other species. As our fields evolve and cross-over of animal care staff and leadership increases, we are finding new insight on old problems, and learning from the common ground.
