Amy Sanders from Wild Care will be with us on Tuesday, July 29 at 10:00am for a TENT Talk to share the different types of work performed and patients served at the Outer Cape's animal rehab facility.
Wild Care is a nonprofit wildlife hospital located in Eastham, that is dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and release of injured and orphaned wildlife on Cape Cod– as well as working actively on education of the public to the many issues facing wildlife in these times. This talk will cover the basics of Wild Care as an organization, the facility, staff, and patients seen, and ways you can help, with a few interesting stories– like the snapping turtle who got out of a cage in an unfathomable way, or the cormorant who escaped and caught the eye of police– and a few more silly ones, too!
