If a special equipment vehicle is to be used for animal rescue, it must be able to perform various tasks. Starting with the rescue of animals of various sizes from predicaments, through to the provision of first aid measures or safe transportation to medical facilities. Such an animal rescue vehicle is often operated by the fire department to provide mobile animal rescue for cats stuck in trees, dogs in sewers, horses and cows in ditches, to name just a few examples.
However, an animal rescue vehicle, or mobile animal rescue, does not limit its field of activity to pets and farm animals, but also helps wild animals that have got into an emergency situation. This could be large birds caught in fences, for example, or foxes, deer or rabbits that have become trapped or fallen in somewhere.
For this reason, animal rescue vehicles must be equipped with specialist veterinary and medical personnel as well as the technical equipment for mobile animal rescue in an emergency. Special animal boxes of various sizes must be safely installed, as well as suitable precautions for restraining injured animals on stretchers so that the crew of the animal rescue vehicle cannot be attacked and injured by the animal. The supply of water and food to the animals must be guaranteed.
However, it is not only the technical equipment of the equipment van for animal rescue that is of the utmost importance; cooperation with regional animal shelters and veterinary clinics is also crucial for effective mobile animal rescue. As a leading provider of special vehicle construction, Norrenbrock-Technik has the necessary expertise to convert and convert a suitable panel van or Sprinter into an animal rescue vehicle, while the owner of the animal rescue vehicle is responsible for the organizational and logistical aspects.
