Wildlife Patient Update
Request Form

Thank you for caring about wildlife and bringing an injured, sick, or orphaned animal to South Florida Wildlife Center.

Our team provides care for thousands of wildlife patients each year. While we understand the emotional connection many finders develop with the animals they rescue, our primary focus is providing the best possible medical treatment and rehabilitation for every patient.

We will respond to patient update requests via email within 14 days. We ask that you do not submit more than one status request per month. Care for our patients comes first, and we must leave our wildlife hotline open for emergency calls. Replies will come from admissions@southfloridawildlifecenter.org (add this to your email contacts to help ensure updates do not go to your spam folder). Thank you for your cooperation as we continue to provide these updates for everyone!
