NEW ARC

North East Wildlife Animal Rehabilitation Coalition is a 501(c)3, non-profit organization. We are a group of licensed wildlife rehabilitators, and these are the tales of the injured and orphaned animals we care for until they are able to be released back into the wild.

Funny looking raccoons

No masks and no ring tails! But pretty cute none the less. Got a group of 8 opossums....all boys too! Mom was hit by a car and killed along with 2 other siblings, but these guys were found and rescued in time. Mary is our resident opossum expert so I RAN to her when I got them! ha ha

These little guys are about 47 grams. They are not self feeding yet, but they are close....so I got some instructions from Mary and we split them. I'll take care of 4 of them until they start self feeding then we can reunite them all again and they will stay at Mary's until released.
