At the Milwaukee Campus, the Wisconsin Humane Society Wildlife Rehabilitation Center provides care for roughly 5,000 injured, sick, and orphaned wild animals of over 150 different species annually. Our goal is to rescue, rehabilitate and return them to the wild. We provide service to Milwaukee County, and occasionally surrounding counties, although we always refer callers to their closest wildlife rehabilitation resource. In addition to helping animals from Milwaukee County at our wildlife hospital, we also offer advice from our wildlife reception desk to people who have concerns about injured, sick, or orphaned wild animals throughout our state and even outside of Wisconsin!
