Wildlife Rehabilitation Facilities in California

IMPORTANT: Most wildlife rehabilitators do not provide services to pick up wildlife. They rely on you to get animals to them. Be courteous and mindful of this when you are calling for their assistance.

  • Never drop off animals at a location, unless you are instructed to do so.
  • Wildlife rehabilitators often work out of their homes. They are not on-call (24 hours/7 days).
  • Wildlife rehabilitators often specialize in certain species. They may limit the number of animals they can accept.
