Other General Contacts
Our staff does not rehabilitate wildlife nor can we respond to incidents off site. Instead, keep your distance from the animal and contact a local rehabilitation facility. The contact information for Wildlife ER - Education & Rehabilitation may change periodically, so check their Facebook page for the most up to date information.
The Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center Stranding Response Program is responsible for rendering aid to all marine mammals and sea turtles that come ashore in Virginia. Call the hotline directly for any strandings in the Sate of Virginia, even if they aren't on our refuge.
