Wildlife Education & Rehabilitation Center
2023-present (1 year)
The Wildlife Education and Rehabilitation Center in Morgan Hill, CA is both an acute care center for injured and sick wildlife and a nurturing center for orphaned wildlife too young to exist on their own. W.E.R.C. operates as a temporary refuge as the organization's goal is not to tame, but to release animals back into their native habitat healthy, wild, and free. Wildlife rehabilitation is an evolving science. Due to diverse requirements in care, feeding, handling and physical therapy, it is a process requiring skill, training, and continuing education. W.E.R.C., with a dedicated team of staff and volunteers, has been recognized as meeting these requirements. As such, it is the only facility in the South Santa Clara County licensed by California Department of Fish and Wildlife and by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to care for native wildlife. In addition to caring for native wildlife, W.E.R.C. provides a list of ancillary services to the community. These services include: EducatioSee more
