The question is asking you why it is important to have a policy on wildlife rescue that covers various situations that may come up. It is asking you to use current ethical issues to help support why a policy is necessary.

Ethical issues relating to wildlife rescue could be; interfering with nature, destruction of habitats, rescuing animals thought of as 'pests', the consequences on the environment/ other animal species, global warming, animal/ human conflicts, dangerous animals etc.

Here are some other points you coudl include:
Wildlife Unit capacity - how much space do the animals need, do they need space to fly, climb, enrichment, how many animals to a space
Euthanasia - when, under what conditions, who decides
Consequences - complaints, animal deaths, RSPCA/ national guidelines, ensuring you are covered

I hope this helps in some way.
