@bradshk14 recently went behind the scenes @Wildlife_Center and @PeninsulaHumane to learn about the staffers and volunteers who take on the daunting task of nursing sick, injured and orphaned animals back to health and releasing them back into the wild. https://t.co/yF5YsUz97z

This year's Avian Disease Prevention Program season was a success! There were no botulism outbreaks & we rescued a few sick gulls. We captured this scraggly gull & brought it to @Wildlife_Center. The 2nd image was taken by WCSV after successfully treating & releasing the gull!

A group of 4 dedicated corporate volunteers from @flyarcher helped reunite kennel halves with their missing partners, and their long-lost doors. Our crates thank you, the animals thank you, and most of all we thank you for helping us to rehabilitate local wildlife!

This year we've received 230 raptors - we expect this number to rise as the Bay Area sees more rain and high winds. If you see a downed raptor, don't handle, feed, or attempt transport! Call WCSV or your local animal control for help. More info:

Due to facility maintenance, our phones are down - staff will still be in the hospital, so please continue bringing animals to our facility. Ring our doorbell when you arrive and someone will be out to assist. If you have any questions, text our Google Voice [phone].

Officer Bitonti was dispatched to an injured hawk call this morning. He was able to safely capture the hawk and transport it to @Wildlife_Center where it will be cared for by their awesome staff. We’re always happy to help any community member in need, including our wildlife.

Our volunteers tirelessly tackle the toughest tasks, cleaning, raising countless orphans, and so much more! Equally important are all of our off-site volunteers, enabling us to provide the best possible care for sick, injured, and orphaned wildlife. You truly make a difference!

[International Bird Rescue @IntBirdRescue]

We received our first Killdeer chick of the year from the @Wildlife_Center Silicon Valley: Bird arrived dehydrated and quiet but is perking up quickly with fluids and a warm incubator.
