Helping Injured/Abandoned Birds
I found an injured bird. Who do I call or Where can I take it?
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service does not have rehabilitators here on staff. Call your local veterinarian, humane society, or county or municipal wildlife agency to find the nearest qualified wildlife rehabilitator that can take and treat the bird.
You may also use the below links to help put you in touch with a qualified rehabilitator. We encourage you to contact your local State wildlife agency who will have information on rehabilitators for all wildlife. While you are locating a suitable rehabilitator, keep the bird in a dark box in a warm, quiet spot. Do not disturb it or offer it food. Let it rest.
