Show Notes
Debbie McGuire, the long-standing executive director of the Wetlands and Wildlife Care Center in Huntington Beach, California, is retiring after over three decades of service. Her career began during the 1990 American Trader oil spill, where she and other volunteers rescued oiled birds and wildlife. Inspired by the Exxon Valdez spill, she helped establish a dedicated facility in 1997, which has since become the areas go-to spot for injured, orphaned, or sick native birds and animals. The center has handled various environmental challenges and now includes a teaching hospital. As McGuire retires, new challenges like highly pathogenic avian influenza threaten birds and seals, and the center is searching for a successor to lead big projects like a one-hundred-foot flight cage and a new two-story building.
