The
Sanders Wildlife Rehabilitation Center has a long running standard for
care and rehabilitation of native Ohio species. We receive and treat
more than 1,000 orphaned and/or injured wildlife patients annually.
Our mission is to provide each patient with the proper food, housing,
and medical
treatment
necessary to return them to their natural environment.
Occasionally, because of the seriousness
of the animal's injury, some rehab patients are unable to be released
back into their environment. We have a special permit which allows animals
with permanent injuries to possibly become residents of
the Sanders Center. These animals are then eligible to be included
in the Education Program and can make appearances at presentations
where they assist in the instruction of natural history. To help in
our endeavor to care for these fantastic creatures, we invite you
to sponsor an animal in our Adopt an Animal program.*
Your sponsorship will help the
Sanders Center acquire all the needed supplies (food, shelter, medicines,
etc.) for the proper treatment of rehabilitated and resident animals.
Because we receive such a large and vast amount of animals, their
care can be quite costly. Your sponsorship will go directly towards
these purposes.
