The Sanctuary
Wildlife Rescue & Rehabilitation (WR&R) receives orphaned, injured, and displaced wildlife and returns as many as possible to the wild. We also provide permanent care in large natural enclosures to farmed animals and non-releasable wildlife. Among the latter are native and non-native wild animals who were victimized by the “pet” trade, held in roadside zoos, or used in research. These include black bears, primates, mountain lions, other mammals, and numerous species of birds and reptiles.
WR&R has a specific Capuchin monkey program with a troupe all ready to introduce Frankie to and a spacious outdoor enclosure for them to thrive.
