Issue Date: March 2024
The unit is applicable to wildlife animal keepers or carers who are expected to perform tasks under supervision.
In addition to legal and ethical responsibilities, all units of competency in the ACM10 Animal Care and Management Training Package have the requirement for animals to be handled gently and calmly. The individual is required to exhibit appropriate care for animals so that stress and discomfort is minimised.
This unit of competency covers the process of monitoring the general health and wellbeing of young animals that may be either rescued native wildlife or captive animals being naturally or artificially reared.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
