About

The Wildlife Care Center provides compassionate, high-quality medical care for injured and orphaned native wildlife, serving as Oregon's oldest wildlife hospital. The facility accepts injured and orphaned birds, reptiles, and amphibians from Oregon, with specific federal restrictions on accepting mammals or animals from other states.
