R-PAWS Rehabilitation Program
R-PAWS is an organization of volunteer members that nurtures injured and orphaned wildlife for release back into their wild habitats. R-PAWS is licensed by state and federal permits. The program works in cooperation with the Department of Natural Resources (D.N.R.), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary.
The Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary receives over 6,500 wildlife patients in need of rehabilitation each year.
Our Mission
We strive to provide an urban wildlife refuge where the community can interact with wildlife, plants, and other natural resources through environment education and recreation.
