Wildlife Release Program

The Wildlife in Need Center’s main purpose for existence is to rehabilitate and release wildlife back into their natural environment. Since the opening of the Center’s doors, over 30,000 animals representing more than 140 species have been brought to the center for care or medical attention. Each species requires a slightly different habitat in the wild to survive and a place to call home.

Unfortunately many of our patients can not be return to their original homes due to habitat and human disturbance. Southeastern Wisconsin is expanding rapidly and appropriate release sites that will provide the resources our recovered wild patients need to survive are difficult to find, but you can help!
