Welcome

For more than three decades the Treasure Coast Wildlife Hospital has been a community institution, offering help for sick, injured and orphaned wild animal patients, plus information and education for human residents and visitors.

We are undertaking an ambitious project - the construction of a new Treasure Coast Wildlife Center to amplify and enhance our services to wildlife and to the community. Learn more about this wonderful project.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, your participation is invited. Join us as a Member or a Volunteer. Take advantage of our Educational Programs and our Nature and Wildlife Tours. See us at an event near you. Get help for a potential patient you have found. Adopt one of our Wild Friends Wildlife Ambassadors. Use our links to additional resources and information.

We hope you enjoy our web site, and we encourage you to help support our work.

Two Bald Eagles have recently been returned to the wild in St Lucie County after lengthy treatment for wing injuries. On 15 December members of Audubon of Martin County attended a release, and members of St Lucie Audubon Society attended another release on 26 December. This video shows the second release.

TCWC volunteer Hollis Dahn created a video as a fundraiser for TCWC with Project For Awesome. Here is a YouTube link to it. We think Hollis did a fabulous job! Watch it and I'm sure you will agree.

The Sustainable Martin Alliance will reprise its highly acclaimed "Martin County 101 -- It's Different Here" program on 20 Jan 2012. Click the logo to get more information and to register.

We Are Underway!!

After five years of saying "We are going to build...." we can now say instead "We Are Building!!"

Mancil Tractor Service is creating a place for us to keep our lake. Good thing, because it was getting pretty cranky, having to lie around scattered hither and yon across our property. We hope it will settle down once we give it a nice, deep home.

Bald Eagle Released after Recovery - see video Click Here 4.1 mBytes Windows Media

An adult female bald eagle was received in October 2007 after being hit by a vehicle outside of Sebring, Florida. The bird sustained abrasions and bruises to its right wrist, but luckily the injuries were not serious. After treatment and rehabilitation here at TCWC, the bird was returned to the wild near its home area on November 29th. Watch the video of its release!

Representative Cases from Baby Season
  • nest containing 4 baby wrens hidden in trailer boat, transported from North Carolina and discovered when the boat is launched in Stuart
  • 3 baby barn owls removed from attic by builder who did not know such action was illegal
  • cottontail rabbit nest revealed by lawnmower- 1 baby killed, 3 others rescued
  • orphaned fawn found near dead mother deer on roadside
  • baby yellow crowned night heron found in mangrove swamp, no nest or adults located
  • tree trimmers remove palm fronds and displace 3 baby squirrels
  • and MANY, MANY MORE!

Without intervention, none of these animals – and hundreds of others like them – would survive. But for over three decades, wild animals along the Treasure Coast have enjoyed a special place of respite, care, and recovery. A place where broken wings can heal, orphaned babies can grow, and untamed spirits can soar. That special place is the Treasure Coast Wildlife Center.

While the work done here is priceless, it does carry a substantial cost. Baby season is always a strain because of the sheer numbers of new patients and their diverse requirements. We depend upon your contributions to provide for their needs. Please help by making a special ‘Baby Season Gift’ today.
