NEW FEATURE









Be sure to check out our Wildlife Hospital!


On your next visit to the World Bird Sanctuary be sure to stop at our Wildlife Hospital to check out an exciting new feature.  We now have a viewing window through which you can see some of our patients who are recuperating from various procedures.  They don't seem to mind the visitors as long as they are quiet.

In addition to the viewing window there is a bulletin board with a card posted for each patient, listing the species and reason they are here, as well as their progress.

Our hospital treats an average of 280 patients each year, and costs to rehab a bird for release into the wild can range from $200 to $1000.  In order to defray some of these expenses our hospital is offering an exciting new opportunity.  For a donation of $150.00 a generous donor will have the rare opportunity to release a recovered bird back into the wild.  

For more information about our "Return To The Wild" program call the Wildlife Hospital at 636-861-1392, or email credfern@worldbirdsanctuary.org
