Volunteers can actually use it
Unlimited seats and phone-first care screens mean the Saturday volunteer logs the feeding the same way staff do. No shared logins, and no per-seat bill for help you don't charge for.
Wildlife rehabilitation software
Patient records that keep up with baby season.
Echidna gives rehabilitation teams intake and quarantine workflows, multi-day treatment plans, daily care schedules, documents and permits, and volunteer-friendly mobile logging, with medical records included on every plan, because in rehab the medical record is the record.

Built for the team actually doing the work
Official records, field logging, medical history, documents, and operations stay connected.
Medical is the core, not an add-on
Every patient gets SOAP notes, treatment plans, medications, weights, and a full clinical timeline on every plan, from intake exam to final disposition.
Records that answer to your permits
Intake paperwork, permits, and official documents live beside each animal, and census and inventory exports are ready when your wildlife authority's reporting comes due. USDA/APHIS and state agencies in the US, SINAC in Costa Rica.
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.
Works offline
Care logs, weights, health records, vaccinations, medications and observations save on the device when the signal drops and sync when it returns, so a round that starts in signal can finish anywhere.
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
A rehab system has to handle surge, turnover, and paperwork at once.
High intake volume, patients that stay weeks instead of decades, volunteer-heavy staffing, and agencies that expect clean records. Echidna is built for the parts of rehab that spreadsheets and binders drop first.
Intake and quarantine
Active quarantine periods, observations, clearance workflow, and placement warnings when an animal is outside designated quarantine space.
Treatment plans and medications
Multi-day courses expand into doses due today, with each given, missed, or refused dose recorded back to the medical history.
Daily care and feeding schedules
Recurring care templates, daily task lists, and skip/complete tracking, built for feeding rounds that repeat every few hours.
Volunteer-friendly field logging
Fast phone screens save care logs, weights, health records, vaccinations, medications and observations without Wi-Fi and sync them later, so care gets recorded in the flight cage instead of remembered at the whiteboard.
Documents and permits
Intake files, permits, transfer paperwork, and vet attachments stored beside the animal record, exportable anytime.
Release readiness
Training Lab tracks the behaviors that matter for survival and reduces human dependence before release, alongside the rest of the record.
Public intake front door
A public “I found injured wildlife” form on your own site feeds straight into a staff intake inbox. Review each report and convert it into a permanent patient record in one step: origin, location, and finder details carried over.
Sponsorships and donations
Feature rescued animals on a public sponsor page with their story. Supporters sponsor an animal or give through your own donation page, and every interested donor lands in your team’s follow-up list.
Switching
Bring your patient history into the migration plan.
Migration help is included. We review a sample, agree the supported records and timing, and let your team check the import. Anything you keep as an attachment does not travel — scanned permits, vet imaging, a necropsy PDF. Photos come across as one link per animal. Those files stay where they are and you keep that copy; you re-upload what you need afterwards. We tell you that before we start, not after.
1
Bring what you already have
Share a sample export or spreadsheet and tell us about paper records and attachments.
2
Agree the scope and timing
We identify supported fields, explain attachment handling, and agree a migration plan before the move.
3
Review your imported records
Your team checks the imported records against the originals before relying on them for daily work.
