Orphaned Wildlife
Do NOT drop-off orphaned or injured wildlife at any National Wildlife Refuge. Instead, contact a licensed wildlife rehabilitator. These individuals are trained to care for sick, injured or, in some cases, orphaned wildlife. Many rehabilitators specialize in caring for certain types of wildlife. The Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife (MassWildlife) maintains a list of wildlife rehabilitators by region.
