HOSPITAL RESCUES INJURED & ORPHANED WILDLIFE
Darla Landgren discovered a nest of two-day old bunnies whose mother had been frightened away and did not return. Darla called the Conservancy of Southwest Florida vonArx Wildlife Hospital who sent a volunteer to rescue the babies. They will be fed with an eye-dropper at the hospital and when they are old enough, they will be released back into our area.
If you see injured or abandoned wildlife, call the Conservancy of Southwest Florida (239-262-2273) to connect with vonArx Wildlife Hospital. Their staff will tell you what to do until they can rescue the animal(s).
