One of four Video Clips to come, of the Wildlife Rescue Center in the Hamptons, NY

We are very fortunate to have a Wildlife Rescue Hospital near by. The Center is about 10 years old. It started all in a basement and has come a very long way. The Hospital is open from 8.00 am - 8.00 pm were you can get some advise, how to handle Wildlife or drop off an injured animal. At night you will get a pager and someone will call you back. Always call 631-728-Wild first, not every time does the animal need to be rescued. When a baby bird falls out of the nest, that happens a lot before the birds starts to fly. A baby deer is left by his mother for four hours, so she can travel faster when they are very young and then she comes back to collect them. The work is endless, but very rewarding. Feeding the baby birds every 1/2 hour - 1 hour. The Mammals every hour, cleaning the cages I do not know how many times a day, weighing to make sure, that they are gaining weight. Medicating, cleaning wounds and dealing with the loss of the once you cared for and tried to save. It is a not-for-profit organization and relies on the Stuff, Volunteers and generosity of the Donors to make it all work. The goal is dedicated to rehabilitate and release the animals were there were found. The compassion, caring and kindness for the Wildlife is overwhelming, that it only humbles you, when you walk in.
