An organization of volunteers dedicated to the specialized care
of all orphaned and injured native wildlife species.
(Licensed under authorization of the Canadian Wildlife Service
and the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources.)
 As humans, we all bear responsibility for the large numbers of injured, orphaned and displaced wildlife that pass through our centres every year. Habitat destruction; environmental poisoning; trapping and relocating nursing mothers; brush removal and tree-trimming during birthing season; collision impacts; unrestrained cats and dogs running loose; oil spill contamination; improper home repair and inadequate exterior maintenance; indiscriminate pest removal practices; and unreasonable fears and misconceptions about urban wildlife, all play a role in human tampering with our natural world.
The volunteers at Wings hope to offset this negative balance by affording all our wildlife patients the same importance and significance, as if each and every one of them were borne to us on eagles' wings.
Wings Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre is located in Amherstburg, Ontario, and primarily takes in wildlife from Essex County. All kinds of wildlife are accepted, including mammals, birds, and reptiles. Any injured or orphaned wildlife are accepted.
