At this time, we are unable to accept any injured or orphaned wild birds. Please do not bring wild birds to Sylvan Heights.
Wild birds pose a potential health danger to our birds, especially the rare and endangered species.
In many cases, it is best to leave wildlife alone. Please contact a wildlife rehabilitator before you attempt to take in a wild animal. If the animal is already in your possession, please call a licensed rehabilitator as soon as possible.
