We're excited to partner with the Center for Wildlife for this event, which will take place on their Cape Neddick campus.

About the Center for Wildlife:

Center for Wildlife proudly serves the New England region typically managing 2,000 patients each year (native wildlife injured because of vehicle collisions, domestic pets, pollution, fishing lines, oil spills, and other human-related causes), representing more than 190 species of birds, reptiles, and mammals. The goal of their wildlife clinic is to not only medically treat and provide rehabilitation to injured wild animals so that they can be released back to the wild but also use data collected to better support broad systemic change.

For over 20 years, Center for Wildlife has also provided environmental education outreach programs bringing live animal ambassadors to schools, libraries, state parks, senior centers, professional conferences, and many other venues. Their Project Wild educators now provide a unique learning experience to over 13,000 individuals each year and enjoys partnerships with local groups committed to environmental education.
