North Country Wild Care
Emergency Hotline: (518) 964-6740
Home
Need help with an animal? Call 518-964-6740 (return calls will be from a different number).
We help with injured or orphaned wildlife in upstate New York.- We are not exterminators or pest control.
- Never try to care for a wild animal yourself. Always contact a licensed Wildlife Rehabilitator.
- Wild animals, even baby ones, have wild instincts. They need to be kept wild for their own survival.
- We aim to rehabilitate animals and release them back into their natural habitat.
- We work with all types of creatures, including squirrels, rabbits, deer, skunks, opossum, bobcats, foxes, chipmunks, porcupines, birds of all kinds including hawks, eagles, owls and more.
