9/22/2009- This Gopher Tortoise was brought in with a traumatic amputation of his right rear leg. He had gotten it caught in a fence. Surgery was performed that same day to remove the rest of the leg and suture the wound.

2/16/2010- Because of some problems with the way the leg was healing he underwent LASER surgery to remove some dead and dying tissue.

This hopefully with help the leg heal faster and better so we can get this guy back out into the wild.

1/20/2010- We received these infant Box Turtles after they were found wandering in someone's yard.

As you can see they are not much bigger than a quarter. But they have great appetites, eating their share of small fish, mealworms, crickets and fruit.

We are happy to announce these little guys have been released back into the wild!

5/15/2010- With spring comes the wild babies. Over the last couple of weeks we have received several baby Eastern Screech Owls. This is the smallest of the ones we have received.

These are more juvenile Eastern Screech Owls that we are caring for. Three others are being fostered by Gonzo, who teaches them how to be Screech Owls.
