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.

Orphaned Fawns

By Sarvey Wildlife / Monday, May 27, 2019 /

There are three in our care at this time. One arrived on 5/24, after mom was hit by a car and killed. Two others arrived on 5/26, one was also orphaned in an accident but the other fawn was clearly kidnapped. It is not always possible for us to attempt to re-unite the kidnap fawns with their mother and sadly, we had no choice but to keep this one. It is always tragic when someone intervenes instead of checking with a Rehabilitator first. It is normal for mom to leave the fawn for hours and go off to graze. She leaves them alone sitting quietly and they have no scent, so as to not attract predators. These three will be with us all summer and others may still be arriving in the coming weeks. Status: released four fawns!
