Wildlife rehabilitation can be one of the most gratifying things you will ever do.  The feeling you get when you watch an animal that you have either raised as an orphan, or nursed through an injury, return to the wild is indescribable!  Giving them back their freedom is a joyful experience that few people will ever know.

 Some New Members will focus on songbirds while other work primarily with small mammals such as squirrels, rabbits and raccoons.  It depends on your interest and extent of training.  Member training classes are taught under the guidance of GCWR or another wildlife organization in the area.  Following the basic training class you may begin working with animals.  Your will then receive help and advice from other members who are experienced rehabbers. If you are interested in becoming a trained wildlife rehabilitator, please contact us .

The Screech Owl is prevalent in our area, and is one of the species of animals we help to return to the wild. Screech owls average just 7 ounces in weight.
