A great place to bring orphaned or injured wildlife. They give you an intake number so you can email to check on your little critter if, like me, you become emotionally invested. I've brought two birds and a baby squirrel there so far and they've all done well.

I love the good work they do. I first heard of them on tv for rescuing bears burned in the California wildfires and just had to support them. I encourage everyone who loves animals to support them.

Very friendly and informative. They took in an injured California Gull that was on my property. I felt that the Gull was in great hands.

Good day. We do take injured and orphaned Mourning Doves. We are open 8 am - 5 pm every day.

I have a problem with birds spreading my bark all over the sidewalk.. I was wondering if there is something I could mix with water (chili Powder) that I could spray on the bark to keep the birds away without hurting them?

I would email the rescue center, they are quick to respond. I'm glad you are looking for a non-harmful way to get the birds to leave. 😊

husband walked in the backyard spooked a momma wood duck with 8 babies. She flew off all the babies ran into our duck shed and she hasn’t come back. I had to catch them being my pet ducks sleep in there. What should I do?

Take them to the Gold Country as they will take care of them. They had the knowledge of the food and how to feed them

We have a duck with a nest and 7 eggs in our small backyard. Once the ducks hatch there is no way for the mother to remove the ducklings from our backyard! Any suggestions?

Hello Jerilyn! Please consider calling Gold Country Wildlife so you can speak to someone directly. I'm not sure how frequently they would check this and you might get an answer sooner! Good luck with your ducklings

Do you have any runner ducks available. Our duck lost her buddy and is very lonely. Thank you Jill

They take in injured wildlife. They don't have animals for adoption.

There is a indured deer in our yard, it’s to big and hurt to transport, what do I do?

As a worker there I would say call the center and arrange long haul transport. We have volunteers who choose to do that for us. It will probably have to be tomorrow but they will give you instructions on what to do until then

Do you bring animals to public events for children to experience wildlife?

Gayle Sorensen | Aug 30, 2018
Kelly Jostad | Mar 2, 2022

I wouldn’t think this wildlife rehabilitation center would further traumatize these rescue animals by transporting them to some silly children’s event. That’s called exploiting animals for human entertainment. This isn’t a zoo.

Do opossum carry rabies??

It's very rare, they have a natural immunity.
