If you find injured or orphaned wildlife, please CALL US at 401-623-1340 promptly for instruction or intake arrangement.  The sooner you call and the quicker you can get injured/orphaned wildlife to us, the greater the chances of a successful rehabilitation and release back to the wild.  Please be certain the young bird or animal (fawn/fledgling/bunny) is truly orphaned.  No kidnapping! If you suspect you have an injured or orphaned groundhog, baby skunks or other rabies vector species (fox, bat, raccoon, etc.), please do not handle/touch bare handed.  No bare skin to fur contact and try to keep any gloved contact to a minimum.  State regulations require euthanasia of rabies vector species that have been handled inappropriately.  Again make a phone call the FIRST thing you do.  Please understand that possessing/caring for wildlife without a permit is illegal so reach out to us ASAP. Call us!  Thank you.
