The Southwest Virginia Wildlife Center’s work with these bobcats reflects a broader mission: protecting native wildlife and the ecosystems they support. The successful release of a predator species is considered a strong indicator of overall ecosystem health.

Springtime is in full swing at the Southwest Virginia Wildlife Center- and that means they are caring for hundreds of babies, including more than 100 opossums.

ONTARIO – This dog is getting some love on the internet after a shelter post described how she was found keeping five kittens warm on the side of a road on a cold night in Canada. Someone notified a shelter, and an animal control officer picked them up. The kittens have been taken in by a foster family because they’re not old enough to be adopted yet. The dog, now named Serenity, will be ready for adoption on Dec. 3. Contact the Pet and Wildlife Rescue of Ontario, Canada if you’re interested.
