McCarthy's Wildlife Sanctuary has treated hundreds of native animals that were
sick or injured. Everything from foxes to bobcats, Sandhill Cranes to pelicans,
hawks, owls, and many others have received veterinarian care by our staff and
then were released back into the wild. Without the support of our volunteers and
members, it would be impossible to continue the work for this valuable cause.
Many of the exotic animals have been donated to us by wildlife officers who
confiscated these innocent creatures from the previous owners because of
neglect, abuse, or illegal possession. Some were pets that owners could no
longer care for and felt McCarthy's Wildlife Sanctuary would provide the animals
a safe haven.
With over ninety permanent resident animals at the sanctuary,
the cost of housing these magnificent creatures is staggering. Twenty-two of the
animals are large cats and, being carnivores, they consume one thousand pounds
of meat each week.
