Have you found injured wildlife? Unsure of how to contact a local wildlife rehabber?

Here’s how you can look up a wildlife rehabber using these steps:
🐿️ search on a browser for your state’s DNR wildlife rehabilitation list.
📝 use the list to find a wildlife rehabber in your area that specializes in the species you found.
📞 call your local wildlife rehabber and be descriptive of the species, problem and location. It’s best practice to not attempt to do anything for the animal until you’ve spoken to a professional.
♥️ donate to the local wildlife rehabber who takes the animal of your concern as they can use the support to continue this vital care.
