About White Pine Wildlife Rehabilitation

White Pine Wildlife Rehabilitation Center is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) tax-deductible, registered charity. We are supported entirely by private donations. We receive no government funding, fees, or reimbursements.

White Pine is an all-volunteer organization. We rescue injured and orphaned wildlife, arrange for veterinary care, provide proper nutrition and shelter, and prepare the animals for return to the wild. We also do educational programs for schools, clubs and organizations to teach children and adults about wild animals, their behavior, habitat, and the correct way to interact with the wildlife around us.

White Pine does not charge for any of the services we provide. Therefore, regardless of financial situation, no child will be deprived of an educational opportunity, nor will an animal suffer needlessly.

White Pine admits critters from 22 counties, and we are the only wildlife rehab center in this part of the state. White Pine cares for between 800 and 1000 injured and orphaned wild animals per year, presents approximately 50 educational programs annually and provides wildlife advice and information to hundreds and hundreds of callers every year.

In May 2002 John & June Owens, Founders/Directors of White Pine Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, received the 2001 West Central Wisconsin Natural Resources Award from the DNR.

Monetary donations are always welcome, as are certain items we can always use.
