Advancing Wildlife Care for the Next Generation
Your support helps the Wildlife Center treat thousands of animals per year, and to train dozens of young professionals who carry our compassion, and our expertise, out into the world.
Training Future Custodians of Wildlife
So far in 2025, the Wildlife Center of Virginia has welcomed 57 students from 20 states and five countries: Australia, Brazil, Ecuador, Mexico, and Peru. These students work alongside our team, gaining essential hands-on experience—performing exams, administering treatments, preparing diets, feeding orphaned animals, and supporting releases.
Please give generously today to support this vital work training the next generation to care about, and care for, wildlife and the environment.
