“We seek to rescue native wild animals that were injured or orphaned in the wild and are unable to be released after rehabilitation or wild animals that have been deemed a nuisance or threat to public safety due to habituation and would otherwise be euthanized. We will also provide a safe haven for animals that have been kept as pets, used for entertainment or from non-reputable animal parks and attractions and have nowhere else to go. Our habitats are built to mimic nature to allow every animal to feel free and provide enrichment features appropriate to each animal's needs, allowing them to pursue their natural behaviors. We educate the public about the natural history of native species with a focus on human-animal relationships and how we can coexist. Wild paws does not breed, buy, or sell animals, and believes wild animals should not be kept as pets.”
