Chris Staupe

Chris was born and raised in Waukesha and has been working with and studying wildlife for much of his life. He earned an Associate's of Science degree with a major in Wildlife Management from Vermilion Community College in Ely, MN in 2006.

Chris then returned to Wisconsin to complete a Bachelor's of Science with a major in Wildlife Ecology-Research and Management and a minor in Captive Wildlife from The University of Wisconsin - Stevens Point (UWSP). He gained more hands-on experience at The Wildlife In Need Center in Oconomowoc where he worked as an intern during the summer of 2008.

After graduation, Chris worked for 8 years as a Licensed Wildlife Rehabilitator for the Wisconsin Humane Society.

Kara Ericson

Wildlife Technician

Kara was born and raised in Waukesha, and has always been an avid animal lover. Over the years, she has had a variety of pets ranging from hamsters, guinea pigs, and hedgehogs, to reptiles such as snakes, salamanders, and lizards. Currently, she has two dogs, two cats, several fish and reptile snakes. Growing up, her first job was at a Humane Society where she had previously spent two years volunteering.

After working there, she left to study abroad where she spent her time in New Zealand at a bible school taking leadership classes for roughly 6 months. Though her work background is in management and retail, she wanted to work for Skedaddle to get back to her passion of caring for animals and wildlife. Being able to help homeowners with humane solutions to their wildlife issues brings her great joy.

When Kara isn’t working, you can find her spending time outdoors doing activities such as hiking, skiing, and running. She enjoys doing half and full marathons. She also loves to spend time with her local family and getting to see her nieces and nephew.
