Why
Keep Residents? Each of our residents are past patients of the
WMC, presenting for their inability to fly. They were treated with
the intent of release into the wild, however, medical complications
arose which eventually prevented them from being 100%.Each resident
has their own story.
It is imperative to understand that the injuries these animals received
were so debilitating that they would not be able to fend for themselves
if released. Although they live with us, they are in no way house
pets: we consider them tolerant of people, but not tame. |

The residents serve as ambassadors to the public about the importance
of caring for our environment and the wildlife we share it with. Residents
travel with us to grade schools, wildlife events, and even museums to
teach people that it is crucial that we make an effort to maintain the
natural order of our environment. |
