You might have seen Wild Again on TV numerous times!
Wild Again Rescue believes that EVERY Life Has Value which makes this rescue uniquely diverse. From domestic barn animals (horses, goat, pigs, geese...) to exotics (parrots) to Ohio Wildlife (squirrels, bunnies, raccoons, opossums, fox...)
And we are now adding to our team of incredible volunteers!
As a Wild Again volunteer you’ll begins working with the:
Sanctuary Animals in the "Barn care" division.
You’ll be an integral part of the Wild Again team learning about & caring for many animals that have been abused, neglected or just need a long term place to retire and are in need of love and daily care!
Such animals include: horses, pigs, goat, geese, ducks, etc.
If desired, you can work your way into Wild Again’s Wildlife Division where you’ll receive education & training to care for Injured/orphaned Wildlife.
Licensed by State of Ohio DNR, Wild Again rescues, rehabilitates and releases orphaned, injured or sick wildlife. 90% of the wildlife brought to Wild Again are infants that have been orphaned for one reason or another. They are usually too young to regulate their own body temperature or eat on their own. Trained, committed volunteers clean & disinfect cages/enclosures, bottle feed, prepare foods, assist with medical treatments, maintain records on each animal etc... Three hour shifts are assigned around the clock; 24/7 mainly April thru September. Each volunteer will be trained for the appropriate tasks of the various stages of animals' growth and requirements.
Many of Wild Agains volunteers also participate in other facets of the organization such as: Events, office work, grounds maintenance, construction projects, fundraising, community outreach...
First step to volunteering is to fill out an application and we’ll be in touch about our January orientation!
