The ESC only cares for injured wildlife that is native to our area. We are unable to care for certain native animals because of regulations placed on the care of wild animals such as Rabies Vector Species. For more information on this topic, please see the link below.

♦EMERGENCY WILDLIFE INFORMATION♦

          -when handling the animal use gloves or a towel.

          -place the animal in a box with shredded newspaper or a t-shirt.

          -keep the animal quiet and warm.

The Environmental Studies Center does not have a pick up service for injured wildlife.  The animal must be brought to the Center in order for us to care for it.
