We have a mission of rescue; rehabilitation and when possible release. The reason we say “when possible” is because many factors create situations where rescued animals can never be released. If an animal has been in “human contact” for far too long it may be deemed un-releasable. If the injuries the animal sustained are too severe even after rehabilitation the animal may be un-releasable. However; our ultimate goal is to always if possible release animals back to their natural habitat. If and when that is not possible which is a decision by our veterinarian team we find ways to ensure that animal lives the rest of his/her life in a safe; enriched and loving environment.
We always have five full-time volunteer coordinators on staff who are responsible for handling the day to day duties at the rescue center. We have a management coordinator; food preparation coordinator; enclosure cleaning coordinator and an enrichment coordinator. Please visit our website to view the daily responsibilities of each coordinator and to access the online application form.
We also seek regular volunteers and offer internships.
