Our immediate goal is to qualify for a wildlife custodian authorization for rehabilitating orphaned fawns by June, the beginning of fawn season.

 We're 30% there!

To accomplish this, we need to raise about $20,000 for building enclosures, supplying our clinic and getting the electrical hookup for the trailer.

Thank you to TD Friends of the Environment Foundation for funding public awareness initiatives!

You can help!
Sign up to volunteer by filling out the volunteer application form and sending it in by mail or email.

Thank you to R.W. Tomlinson Ltd. for the generous donation of a construction site trailer to serve as our clinic!

Thank you to all those who have provided donations, volunteer hours and enthusiasm to help make this important project come to life!


Or you can donate to help us raise the funds and materials needed to build the fenced enclosures. Please spread the word to your workplace or community members who may be able to help us with funding.

History of CCWR Wildlife Rehabilitation Living with wildlife How to help Sanctuary Animals

Our Mission

Wildlife Rehabilitation

    "Wildlife rehabilitation is the practice of skilled, knowledgeable and dedicated care provided by qualified persons for injured, orphaned, diseased or displaced wildlife. Rehabilitators have one ultimate goal; to return wildlife to their native habitat, in optimum health."
    (OWREN - Ontario Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Network)

CCWR is working towards a Wildlife Custodian Authorization, to be issued by the Ministry of Natural Resources. We are applying for the funding needed to build our intake clinic and animal enclosures in the hope of taking in injured and orphaned fawns starting in spring 2010.


Public Education

Some harm to wildlife can be prevented through public education. CCWR will develop an extensive campaign to inform the public on the role people can play in minimizing the impact humans have on wildlife.


Advocacy

CCWR believes that we need to respect nature and that all life should have value and meaning. When human industry interferes with the balance of nature, we need to take a responsible approach. CCWR will work with city officials and developers, speaking on behalf of wildlife when its well-being is threatened by land development.


Sanctuary

CCWR has evolved from The Angora Goat Sanctuary which provides a permanent home to unwanted, neglected or abused farm animals. The Sanctuary branch of CCWR will continue to provide excellent care and a permanent home for these animals.
