We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, permitted, wildlife rehabilitation facility in Virginia's beautiful Shenandoah Valley. We specialize in the Eastern Cottontail Rabbit but offer stabilization and transportation to any native wildlife. As a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, all donations are tax deductable going directly to support patient care; all staff are volunteers and receive no financial compensation. We offer rehabilitation, rescue, transportation, public presentations, and student internships.
Are you interested in supporting conservation and wildlife? Let us know! We welcome apprentices, student interns, volunteer transporters, wild greens harvesters, and private release sites. We'll help you find a way to volunteer that best suits you; just contact us for more information!
Whether you help through monetary donations, volunteering your time, collecting native greens, or spreading our mission through word-of-mouth, thank you. We couldn't accomplish our goals without the help of supporters like you.
We offer two paid internships (6 and 12 weeks) from April through August for qualified applicants. This training allows students to practice animal husbandry for many native species, network within the conservation community, work with the public, travel to state parks and facilities, learn plant indentification and harvest methods for patient food/enrichment, and study for the CWR examination. See our FaceBook page for more details!
