Review for Wild Paws Midwest Animal Sanctuary, St Croix Falls, WI, USA

Rating: 5 stars   Featured Review

Wild Paws is proud to be able to help displaced wildlife in need. We have grown from providing for two residents to seven in 2023, and this is thanks to our fantastic volunteers and our generous donors and supporters. Our residents are not able to be released into the wild again after rehabilitation or due to the circumstances they came from, and therefore we provide them with a home for life. 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.

Review for Wild Paws Midwest Animal Sanctuary, St Croix Falls, WI, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Wild Paws has experienced much growth in the past few years
- establishing a working board and animal care team, including medical director and animal curator
- acquiring land for our wild animal sanctuary
- placement of our first 5.5 acre perimeter fencing around our first habitat areas
- installation of resident caretaker housing and infrastructure to support, i.e. well, septic and electrical
- building our first acclimation habitats
- being able to provide a home for life our first rescues, two wild foxes
- maintaining high standards and compliance in safety and all other aspects of running a facility in compliance with local, state and federal laws
As we continue to build we take great care in spacial and security requirements needed for each species. We look forward to welcoming more displaced wildlife in need, and providing them with their best life as close to the wild as possible.
