Our mission is to protect wildlife through rescue, rehabilitation, release and education, advancing conservation, and the interconnected health of animals, people, and the environment.
South Florida Wildlife Center
Since 1969, the South Florida Wildlife Center has treated and rehabilitated thousands of injured and orphaned wildlife animals in the tri-county area. The Center is the highest-volume wildlife hospital in Florida, admitting nearly 8,000 animals each year. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and release injured and orphan wildlife in South Florida, and to educate the public about wildlife issues and a peaceful co-existence with our wild neighbors.
