Because of our experienced exotic animal doctors we often receive calls regarding wildlife rescue. Although we are not a wildlife rehabilitation facility, our love for all creatures inspires us to help by giving advice to those who stumble across wild animals in need of help, and sometimes provide emergency care to wildlife until they can be moved to a rehab facility.
Please remember that if you come across a baby animal alone, there is no a need to panic. Mothers of wild animals from birds to chipmunks to deer often will leave them by themselves for hours at a time to find food, and the baby will be safe. Please do not remove them from their nest or hiding place–unless you have a reason to believe they are seriously injured, and in that case, please feel encouraged to call us and ask for advice in the specific situation first.
