Patient Profiles
Every day new patients arrive at our facility. We see over 3,000 patients annually. Over 135 different species come to us for care. In an effort to tell their stories of survival and highlight the diverse number of species that we rehabilitate, we try to share some of their stories here. You can also see posts on our social media pages.

A Tangled Tail
These four female Eastern gray squirrels were rescued from a tree. They were completely tangled together by their tails. The fur was full of debris from the nest which contributed to the mess. But with a little effort and working quickly we managed to get them separated. They are thin and very dehydrated. One of them lost a bit of her tail at some point. No idea how long they suffered this way, but they are now free to move around independently. They should all be fine after some time in our care and will eventually be released. Status: released
