NPWRC is a non-profit (501(c)3) volunteer organization. We get no government funding. Our ability to help the wildlife is possible only due to the generosity of the people in the community.

You cannot rehabilitate animals by just putting them in cages and feeding them. Just like injured people need time to heal and then exercise and physical therapy to make the injured limbs work, so do the animals. They need enclosures large enough to fly or run and jump. They need food, and lots of it and each has a different diet. Some of the orphaned animals need frequent feedings (every 15 - 20 minutes like the mother bird feeds). They need clean bedding or perches or pens. They need medicine and other medical supplies. Nature provides for the animals when everything is going right, but due to man's intervention, sometimes nature needs man's help getting things put back on the right track.

If you enjoy that special moment when you get to see a wild animal in its natural setting, then think of us. We try to get the injured and orphaned animals back out there for those special moments, and we need your help.
