I'm glad they took an injured bird in but a little bit more kindness from the secretary will be nice

Very nice people! Took in a wounded pigeon for us! Awesome that they accepted no charge but they do accept donations! Well worth it to help out. Thank you!

Took a baby wild baby bird, they informed us what kind of bird it was and we left a donation, it was refreshing to know our baby bird will hopefully be able to flourish.

Open every day, but hours are restricted and will reduce in the winter. They took the Cooper's hawk but will have to send it to another rehab facility to fix it up. I'm glad they are doing what they do to rescue animals.

I have no idea. You may want to call their #

Do you take in pets? I found a red eared slider near my house that my neighbor has raised from a baby and i know you aren't supposed to release them into the wild.

You could ask the zoo if they would take it. The zoo definitely takes in surrendered pets and it would get cared for and have a great place to live. We do have wild red eared sliders in NM but releasing a pet into the wild is dangerous and could easily kill him because he doesn't know how to survive.

Skyler, Unfortunately, we do not have the resources to go out and pick up animals - we are an all volunteer organization with limited resources. You'll need to bring them to us in order for us to be able to help them. We are open for intakes from 9am to 2pm every day. I hope this helps.

Yes, Wildlife Rescue (344-2500) is open at 10am. Keep it in a box with a soft towel somewhere that won't get too hot or cold overnight.

11 years and under must volunteer with an adult. At 12 she can volunteer by herself. All volunteers must buy the training manual, pass a test, and sign a release. I'd recommend taking the trainings in the spring where they cover everything on the test.

Do you rescue reptiles?

I have an injured wild pigeon. My cat tried to attack him but I was able to intervene. Pigeon seemed to already have been injured. I put him into a box and wrapped him. Is there anywhere I can take him to help him feel better?

Angel Chavez | Nov 7, 2018
Duane Ross | Nov 7, 2018

Leave him in the box undisturbed and take him to the Wildlife Rescue Center in the morning. Don't try to feed him tonight.

Can we bring injured birds or animals??

Isabella Tetreault | Nov 7, 2018
Gary Thurston | Nov 7, 2018

Hi, I found a baby western king bird on the ground so I tried to but it back in the nest and he or she jumped out of the nest so we put her or him in a box we are going to each the other one just so we know if it jumped out can you give me edvis

Exotic_Girl | Nov 7, 2018
Duane Ross | Nov 7, 2018

Putting the bird in a box is probably a good idea. It is usually best not to feed it or bother it at all overnight. I don't have experience trying to get a baby bird back in a nest, so you should contact the rescue. Good luck

There’s a mama duck who has laid her eggs near a sidewalk where I work. She’s out of the way enough that it doesn’t seem people will mess w/her, but she’ll have no safe way of taking her ducklings out of the area once they hatch. Any suggestions?

Audrey Chavez | Nov 7, 2018
Duane Ross | Nov 7, 2018

I would recommend calling the people at Wildlife Rescue (344-2500) to discuss the best course of action. Often, less involvement with the animal is best, but they may have scone specific things you should do and not do. Good luck!

Arthur Silva | Nov 7, 2017
