Welcome to the Wildlife Rehabilitation Center
ANNUAL OPEN HOUSE! Sunday, Feb. 5 Noon-4pm
On Sunday, Feb. 5th, WRC will be overrun with a new species: Stuffed animals.
As part of our annual open house, children (and adults!) are invited to pick up an animal at our admit desk and then take it through the rehabilitation process. From a vet exam, to wing splints and bandaged legs, thousands of stuffed animals will be treated and "released" on the way out of the building.
If stuffed animals aren't your thing, we hope you'll still join us. It's a wonderful chance to ask questions of our staff, you can peer through microscopes and learn more about parasites, visit with our medical staff and watch a Powerpoint presentation on how we care for thousands of wild animals every year.
Be sure to enter our drawing to win one of several fabulous items including the opportunity to release one of our patients back into the wild! Email Tami if you have any questions. Hope to see you on the 5th!

The Wildlife Rehabilitation Center of Minnesota (WRC) in Roseville, Minn., is a nonprofit, donor-supported organization. The WRC was established in response to the increased need for medical care of injured, ill and orphaned wildlife. With a medical staff of 8, the Center is one of the largest and busiest wildlife medical centers in the nation. More than 400 volunteers care for, rehabilitate and release the wildlife that they've worked with. The WRC treats more than 8,500 wild animals every year, representing more than 160 different species.
We cannot give tours since we do not keep any animals for educational use. We do have an open house every winter, usually in February. Watch our Facebook page or register for our emails to keep up to date with WRC.
