When releasing a PREY species, we take special care to ensure they can SAFELY learn to live/THRIVE in their environment while having a SAFE PLACE to go!!! Upon release squirrels not only don't have/know where food is, they don't have a "home"/nest and so we ensure they are able to reintegrate to "squirrel society" safely!
Sending everyone love this season!
Happy as a clam foraging for seeds in this GIANT zucchini! Much like they will do in the wild with grubs and logs!
Watch these raccoons get released back into the wild!
This group of raccoons was found orphaned back in the spring and brought to us to rehabilitate. We bottle-fed them and kept them indoors until they got big enough to eat solid food on there own. Once they were weaned, we moved them to our outside cages to get them acclimated to the smells and temperatures of being outside. It's a great feeling to see our hard work pay off and get these guys back out in the wild where they belong!
For Tree Trimming - Choose Winter!
Fall babies are too small to release while its both warm enough and trees have sufficient foliage.... So at SFRWRC we keep them over winter until we can safely release in the spring!
🥳 Our transition cages are empty and all racoons are big enough to be in their winter "digs"!
We truly appreciate the incredible community that supports our mission! Every life we SAVE is made possible through the generosity of our donors and sponsors who enable us to continue our work.
To all those who contribute - no matter the amount - we are deeply grateful!
A big thank you to POLLART | MILLER , Signarama Brighton & Squirrels Anonymous our 2024 FOX LEVEL ($1000) Gala donors for your support.
🦝 Party Rockin & enjoying the last warm days before this weekends storm! 🌨️
(These are 8 of the raccoons that will over winter with us until they can be safely released next spring)
Why are squirrels basically the ultimate Millennials? Because they’re all about that avocado life! 🥑🐿️ (Seriously, if they could snag some bread, they'd have avocado toast every morning!)
Putting the FUN in fundraising!

Pibald Coloratoion is a genetic trait that causes a partial or complete loss of pigmentation, resulting in white patches, spots, or splotches on an animal's skin or fur. Animals with full leucism are almost entirely white, while those with partial leucism are often referred to as "piebald".
Leucism doesn't affect the pigment cells in the eyes, so leucistic animals have normal eye color and doesn't hinder their survival in the wild.
