The Wildlife Rehabilitation Ireland facility is calling for government help to raise money, saying it would show politicians are serious about tackling the climate and biodiversity emergency - but a minister says it is 'not that simple'.

But a government minister says there is currently no structure in place to give funds to such a project.Image:He told Sky News:"We are delighted to continue to partner with WRI but the broader issue around capital supports for a specific project is something that there's not currently a scheme in place for. So what we will do as a government is to give consideration to this type of activity.

While it has not admitted any new patients since 10 December in anticipation of moving, the charity continues its work. WRI has also just released several kestrels back into the wild, including one at the nearby estate of the Baron of Dunsany, Randal Plunkett. The bird of prey was once extremely common in Ireland, but has now been placed on a conservation red list.Lord Dunsany, 38, a filmmaker and death metal fan, is committed to rewilding 700 acres of his land, and has partnered with WRI for the release of many animals.
