The Spring Surge

Each spring and summer, wildlife rehabilitation centers across California prepare for one of their busiest times of the year: baby season.

From roughly April through September, many species of birds and mammals give birth and raise their young. For wildlife rehabilitation centers, including many organizations that are members of the Oiled Wildlife Care Network (OWCN), this means a dramatic increase in patients arriving at their doors.
