The Oklahoma Raptor Center has worked since
1990 to raise, rehabilitate and release orphaned and
injured wildlife. It takes someone who finds an
animal in need of help, and who cares enough to take
action. It takes a veterinarian who has extensive
wildlife experience and who will take the time from
their paying practice to save these wonderful
creatures. And lastly it takes a wildlife
rehabilitator who has the training, skills, time and
facilities to rehab the animal and release it back
into the wild.
