Provide care for park program animals

Compile the care log and treatment notes for the park program animals this month and send to Veterinary Services for review — include each animal's ID, hands-on care dates, medications, and the responsible staff signatures in that order. Verify that the enclosure checks were completed and that Emma in Programs has signed before I send it Friday.

Before I hand the animal care summary to the funding panel, make it easy to approve — put animal welfare indicators and recent vet interventions up front, make medication schedules findable, and flag any gaps in enrichment or enclosure checks that would make a reviewer hesitate.

A volunteer missed an evening feeding last week and I only discovered it when reconciling the care log. I don't know if the animals were actually unfed for one night or a staff member covered it and failed to note it. Tell me the likely consequences and the best way to document and correct it now so I can report honestly to Emma and avoid triggering an external review.

Our monthly animal care reports repeatedly require follow-up because volunteers and staff write entries differently, so we spend hours reconciling before Veterinary Services reviews. Suggest a few practical habits and a single lightweight template that will stop these reconciling delays, improve welfare traceability, and make the monthly packet ready without a last-minute call to staff.
