Fellow Prisoners
We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals. Remote from
universal nature, and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through
the glass of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole image in distortion.
We patronize them for their completeness, for their tragic fate of having taken form so far below ourselves.
And therein we err, and greatly err. For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and
more complete than ours they moved finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have
lost or never obtained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not
underlings; they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of
the spendor and travail of the earth.
The Outermost House by Henry Beston, 1928
In 2008, our dispatchers received 2125 rescue calls!
This number accounts for less than half the animals helped by CDWR. Many of our rehabilitators receive direct calls that bypass our
dispatchers. For a complete listing of statistics for 2008, check out our
Animal Rescue Statistics.
So far this year we have received 2937 calls.
