Long Island Wildlife & Animal Rescue (LIWAR) is a not-for-profit group 501(3)(c) established to care for, treat, perform surgery and save wildlife throughout Long Island, New York. LIWAR and Massapequa Pet Vet have provided the community with veterinary care for wildlife and rehabilitation for the past 24 years. We work with numerous municipalities including the police, the Bay Constables, various

shelters, licensed rehabilitators, concerned residence, and numerous rescue groups. Dr. Ned Horowitz and others formed LIWAR to help defray some of the extensive overhead costs. At this time, Massapequa Pet Vet expends close to $200,000 annually to treat these injured animals in our community. Please help us with your generous and compassionate, tax-deductible donation for this desperately needed to cause. We need your help and contributions to continue our mission and goals in providing this desperately needed service to those who can't speak for themselves. LIWAR annually saves hundreds of squirrels, opossums, raccoons turtles, hawks and falcons, foxes, pigeons, seagulls, geese, ducks, swans...

Please help us with our future goal of acquiring land and funds for a wildlife nature medical center to treat, house and rehabilitate these animals in desperate need.

Due to the nationwide shortage of veterinarians, technical staff and available rehabilitators, Pet Vet is temporarily not taking in wildlife for the next few weeks to months. We unfortunately can not take any more injured animals nor fledglings. If the rehabilitators will not take the wildlife anymore, we have no one to refer or care for them. Please see your local DEC web site for a list of licensed rehabilitators that may assist you. Thank you for your understanding.

For birds, glass windows are worse than invisible. By reflecting foliage or sky, they look like inviting places to fly into. And because the sheer number of windows is so great, their toll on birds is huge. Up to about 1 billion birds die from window strikes in the U.S. each year, according to a 201
