Can you help us help wildlife?

We want all of our supporters to be safe and healthy! Because of this, we understand why there need to be lock downs. However, finding funding in these unique times is very difficult.

Consider donating! What do your donations pay for?

-Medical bills

-Food costs

-Housing

-Care costs (supplies, staff costs, enclosure maintenance, etc...)

-Utilities (need to keep those lights on!)

-And SO MUCH MORE!

Whether it is $1.00 or $1000.00, your donation truly makes a difference. Without YOU, there is no us for THEM!!!

OUR MISSION

Back to the Wild is a licensed wildlife rehabilitation and education center in Northwest Ohio. Every year, we rescue an average of 2,500 animals affected by human carelessness and development. While our goal is always to release these amazing animals back into their native habitats, those who are too disabled to get to be free again become ambassadors and help us to teach about wildlife and conservation.

Each year, 30,000 to 50,000 people get to meet our ambassadors and educators to learn about how we can better care for our planet and native wildlife. Community outreach is so important!
