Intake to release, in one record.

Rescue runs on a different clock: animals arrive without warning, stay for weeks, and leave—back to the wild if you've done it right. EchidnaCare supports that full journey, from intake to release, with selected day-to-day screens available in Spanish and more translations in progress.

Release is a first-class record

Marking an animal Released captures the date, site, marking, veterinarian, and witnesses — the animal leaves your active census but keeps its whole history.

Compliance that knows where you are

Set your country and the compliance assistant grounds itself in your framework — Ley 7317 and SINAC in Costa Rica, the AWA and USDA/APHIS in the US — instead of assuming everyone answers to the same agency.

Phone-friendly and volunteer-friendly

Fast phone screens, unlimited staff accounts, and an English–Spanish language switch help volunteers record care the same way staff do.

Evaluation checklist

What buyers usually need to know before they request a demo.

Medical included

SOAP notes, medications, diagnostics, vaccines, rechecks, and clinical history are included—not sold as a separate medical add-on.

No per-seat pressure

Plans are built so the people doing daily care can log records directly instead of sharing accounts or backfilling notes later.

Exportable records

Animal history, documents, and facility records remain downloadable, so switching systems does not create a new lock-in problem.

Private by design

Staff safety and daily operations are built around consent, appropriate access, and a clear record of important changes.

Day-to-day work

Built around the rescue lifecycle.

High intake volume, short stays, volunteer-heavy staffing, and agencies that expect clean records all need one clear process.

Intake

Capture the reason for admission, where the animal was found, and who brought it in as soon as the animal arrives.

Quarantine

Active quarantine periods with observations, clearance workflow, and placement warnings.

Treatment

SOAP notes, multi-day medication courses that expand into doses due today, weights, and the full clinical timeline.

Daily care

Feeding rounds, enrichment, and behavior notes can be saved without a signal and uploaded when the connection returns.

Release readiness

Track the behaviors that matter for survival and reduce human dependence before release day.

Release & reporting

The release record, the exportable animal-history PDF, and census reports your authority can read.

Public found-animal intake

Put a public “I found injured wildlife” form on your site. Reports land in a staff inbox and convert into a permanent patient record — no re-typing what the finder already told you.

Sponsorships and donations

Feature rescues on a public sponsor page and link to your own donation platform. Supporters give directly to you; interested sponsors become a follow-up list, not a payment the platform touches.

Switching

Off the whiteboard without losing a single patient history.

Intake forms, feeding charts, and the spreadsheet one person understands — we map it all into one workspace, free, before you pay anything.

1

Bring what you already have

Send ACS exports, ZIMS exports, spreadsheets, documents, and the side files your team still depends on.

2

We organize the records

Animals, species details, locations, medical history, documents, transfers, and care logs are organized in one workspace.

3

Start with your real records

Your team begins with live records in place, then logs care, treatments, maintenance, and reports from day one.
