Reaching More Wildlife in Need

With 10,000 animals brought to our hospital each year for illness, injury or who have been orphaned, we do our best to put most back into the wild. We also welcome school tours daily during the school-year for visits to learn how to live in harmony with wildlife, and even how to attract them to your yard with the right plants, and water sources. Education can prevent conflicts, which results in most cases in our hospital. We also do this through conservation work with local utilities, developers and other industries. Preventing conflicts keeps the local ecosystem healthy and wildlife populations vibrant. This in turn reduces our need for things like pesticides and traps that can harm people and pets. Living in harmony with a healthy wildlife population is the goal. And it's one we've excelled at for nearly 45 years, thanks to a small professional staff and a large dedicated team of nearly 400 volunteers.
