About WILD PAWS MIDWEST ANIMAL SANCTUARY

Location:

PO BOX 1027, Anoka, MN 55303, US

Mission Statement

To rescue and provide a safe habitat for wild animals using sustainable resources; to promote coexistence between humans and wildlife; and to educate the public about the preservation of wild animals and their ecosystems.

Description

Wild Paws seeks to rescue native wild animals that were kept as pets, used for entertainment or from non-reputable animal parks and attractions. We will also provide a safe haven for animals that were injured or orphaned in the wild and are unable to be released after rehabilitation. Our habitats will mimic nature to allow every animal to feel free. We educate the public about the natural history of native species with a focus on human-animal relationships and how we can coexist.
We are a start-up sanctuary, and purchased land in Spring 2018. Our focus now is fundraising and preparing for our first residents.
