Specific results are seen in practice. For instance, it was reported there was a sick Argali sheep found in a territory of Sagil soum of Uvs province. A team of wildlife rehabilitation and care service arrived at the area, where the sick Argali sheep was, for care delivery. The team included veterinarians, local community members, and an officer of the Department of Environment and Tourism.

WWF-Mongolia, in collaboration with its partners, was able to have a set of four standards on wildlife rehabilitation and care approved by the respective authorities in Mongolia in 2022.  This is one of the key achievements concerning the wildlife conservation in the country.  To achieve this result, WWF-Mongolia had organized a series of training on how to properly rehabilitate and care sick, injured orphaned wildlife for the respective parties (e.g. veterinarians and other local rehabilitators). Under the capacity building activities, sets of first aid kits of wildlife rehabilitation and care were to the local service providers.  The sets contain all the basic emergency care tools including sampling or testing, disinfecting, and surgeon tools and instruments that are useful for delivery of wildlife rehabilitation and care services in the field. Thanks to these first aid kits, the local veterinary and wildlife care  service providers are able to deliver emergency care services in the field, when sick, injured orphaned wildlife need such emergency care including surgeries, when necessary.

According to the veterinarians who examined the sick Argali sheep, it had a symptom of stagger sickness.  The rehabilitation and care team had a surgery to take out or remove its membranous sack or cavity that caused the sickness. The membranous sack or cavity removed was sent for laboratory test analysis. The surgery was successful, and the Argali sheep released back into the wild, according to the wildlife rehabilitation and care team.
