Nestling Incubator
With baby season upon us, we are in need of a better incubator. Our current incubator, used to keep the environment for nestling birds at the correct temperature and humidity, is no longer able to meet our needs, and the needs of our orphaned nestling patients. We’d like to replace it with a much improved […]

Porcupines
Every year we seem to get one animal that steals the show. Last year it was Silver, the melanistic red fox who had been purchased as a pet from a fur farm, passed between a few different people, and finally brought to Wildwoods when it became clear that tamed wild animals make bad pets. Silver […]

Baby Shower!
Spring is here and that means baby season at Wildwoods. We need your help to give them everything they need to grow up and be released back into the wild. Syringes, puppy training pads, nipples, storage jars, bowls, food and more. Every year we go through thousands of dollars worth of these vital items and it would […]

Letter from the Executive Director
2016—Wow, what a year for Wildwoods! Our Duluth-based wildlife rescue and rehabilitation organization has had many record-breaking and ground-breaking moments this year. For instance, this year, Wildwoods helped over 1,250 wild animals in need—a record for us! However, Wildwoods is far more than a place where orphaned or injured animals receive care and treatment.

Baby Herring Gull Needs Foster Family
This Herring Gull needs a foster gull family
We are looking for herring gulls (the big local gulls) nesting on a local (Duluth, MN), accessible roof. Do you know of any? Call us!
Remember our little gull? He went to WRC to be with another gull chick, but it turns out that they are different species, so that won’t work.
In the meantime, all our calling around to seabird rehabbers on the coasts finally bore fruit–one confirmed that we CAN foster out gull chicks (we didn’t want to try this without confirming with someone who does a lot of gull rehab, or we could end up with a dead chick).
So, we’re looking for a foster herring gull family for this little guy. Can you help? Call us at 218-491-3604. Please “share”, and thanks!
A Friendly Reminder
Baby season is in full swing here in the Northland and we just want to take a minute to remind everyone out there that there are a few rules to follow when you find a wild animal that may need help. Don’t panic. Call us at 218-491-3604 immediately. If we don’t pick up, leave a […]
