Wildlife Rescue & Rehabilitation rescues around 3,000 native birds every year. Many of these are fledglings who should have been left alone to be cared for by their parents, but who were found on the ground, doing their best to follow their parents as they became strong enough to fly. Other young birds treated by WRR have been separated from their parents before fledging, or their parents have been killed. All young birds require warmth and species- and age-appropriate feedings until they are old enough to fend for themselves. Your sponsorship provides food, bedding, medication, veterinary care, supplies, and plenty of attention from our Animal Caretakers.

Dozens of species of birds come to WRR every year, ranging from hummingbirds to hawks and owls. Adults usually arrive with signs of gunshot wounds or encounters with vehicles, power lines, and other human structures. Some require surgical repair of wings and other complicated interventions, but most eventually fly free again.
