Wildlife rescue work often involves racing against time. At the WildOne Wildlife Rescue Station in Chishang, Taitung, many wild animals, big and small, flood in as soon as the breeding season begins in spring and summer. Many injured animals, frightened and stressed, may even refuse to eat. Treating and caring are challenging to the veterinarians and rehabilitators. Despite the effort invested in their care, they must restrain their emotions to avoid the animals becoming familiar with humans. And sometimes, after extensive care, if releasing them back into the wild isn’t possible, euthanasia may be necessary for the sake of the animal's good. The film Journey Bound Home documents the journey at the WildOne Wildlife Rescue Station, from receiving injured wildlife to determining if they can ultimately be released back into their natural habitats.
