Fall 2022 Updates

This young Fox was admitted in late July after it was found suffering from severe mange. After about a month and a half in our care we were able to release this now beautiful young male back into the wild!

We understand live trapping an ambulatory animal is challenging and frustrating when all you want to do is help. Sometimes these efforts are in vain if the animal passes away before being caught, or if it gets scared off by the presence of the trap, or if it just absolutely refuses to take the bait in the trap and slowly withers away right before your eyes. Just know, we know you tried your best, you did not fail. Nature has never been kind and we applaud the individuals who acknowledge an animal in need and take the time to call us regardless of what the outcome may be.

Great Horned Owls

These great horned owls are siblings from the same nest. During a wind storm one of them fell from the nest and was admitted. Just a day or so later the entire tree fell down along with the second sibling. Both were fortune enough to not be injured from the fall but needed intervention because they were too young to be out of the nest. They will be with us into early fall.

All of our young admit fox and coyote have been successfully released!

Turkey Vultures

These young turkey vultures were illegally removed from a nest and kept for several days before we were able to intervene and admit them. We will release before they need to migrate.
