Review for Liberty Wildlife Rehabilitation Foundation, Inc., Scottsdale, AZ, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Liberty Wildlife is an organization of highly dedicated volunteers helping Arizona's native wildlife. Every injured animal that arrives at Liberty has a bad experience with human caused conditions; wires, windows, poison, sticky traps, cats, etc. The goal of Liberty is to have no animals on premises, having returned all back to the wild. A significant percentage of those that are treated at Liberty are indeed returned. The Education group of Liberty does a great job of educating the publicv, school children, civic groups on living with wildlife. I'm in my 16th year as a volunteer at Liberty.

Review for Liberty Wildlife Rehabilitation Foundation, Inc., Scottsdale, AZ, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I am in my 15th year as a volunteer for Liberty Wildlife. I do a number of things for Liberty including Medical Services work treating injured wildlife, construction of new or expanded enclosures for both rehab and education animals and rerpairs that are always needed on an aging facility. It is a real thrill to work with a California Condor to start my shift and end the day with a Hummingbird. We are really one of the only advocates that these wild creatures have as they continue to experience serious injuries because of man. Cars, windows, poisons, electrical wires, monofiliment fish line, habitat loss are just a few. Alm ost 55% of our patients are returned to the wild. Education is a critical part of the role that Liberty Wildlife plays in the Community.
