Anytime you find a baby skunk, raccoon, bat, groundhog, fox, or coyote, call the Center immediately BEFORE YOU TOUCH IT. These animals are Rabies Vector Species and require special handling. Please don't expose yourself unnecessarily.
Don't feed an injured or orphaned animal that you may find. Often, people do more harm than good when they try to help an animal by feeding it. Only offer it water before contacting the Center.
If you find a FAWN, please call the PA Game Commission at 724.238.9523, the ARL Wildlife Center CANNOT accept fawns at this time.

The ARL Wildlife Center, founded by the Animal Rescue League of Western PA is a non-profit clinic for wildlife that exists solely on donations, grants, and the help of our dedicated volunteers. Our goal is to treat and release each patient back to the wild. We have treated thousands of patients since opening in 1997. Over 90% of our patients come to us due to conflicts with man, such as being hit by cars, attacked by cats and dogs, or being picked up as presumed orphans.
We are a state and federally licensed rehabilitation facility, and are staffed by one licensed rehabilitator, along with approximately 40 volunteers.
We admit all injured or orphaned native Pennsylvania wildlife. This includes birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians. The Wildlife Center DOES NOT accept domestic animals, exotic species, or feral dogs and cats.
We get a donation everytime you use Goodsearch as you search engine.

Recently, the Northern Territory government announced plans to kill 3000 camels by means of aerial shooting in the township of Docker River. Thirsty and in search of water, the camels converged on the community of Docker River. Instead of assisting the community by building barriers to keep the camels out of the township and investing in long term solutions such as research into birth control or the construction of a manmade waterhole for the camels to drink from, the government are planning to herd the animals away from the town, shoot them and leave their bodies to rot. Despite the outrage of thousands of concerned people from around the world, the Northern Territory government has given the green light for the cull to go ahead and thousands of scared camels are now being annihilated by marksmen from helicopters.
