How beautiful are each one of these different young owls? Not just beautiful, but they are our best organic rodent control so please do not use rat poisons as it wrong goes into their food chain poisoning them. Did you know that one owl will eat over 1000 mice a year this is their staple food so when you use poison, you poison their food let's keep them safe and please bring awareness how precious they are in our ecosystem.
Thank you to the amazing for taking care of these and so much more 🦉🤎

It is so wonderful that we have so many compassionate people wanting to help this sweet coyote girl. Hoping she will get the care she needs and lives out a healthy life without rat poisons. Please help donate to the California Wildlife Center. They are amazing and help out many Wildlife in need here's their link. https://cawildlife.org/

Please do not use glue traps. They are horrific death traps that indiscriminately capture innocent wildlife—including this little bunny. If people truly understood the terrible suffering these traps cause, they would never use them.

Please educate yourself and choose humane, eco-friendly rodent-control methods. Because of their cruelty, glue traps have been banned or severely restricted in Ireland, Iceland, New Zealand, Germany, Norway, the Netherlands, England, Wales, and Scotland.

Glue traps are one of those things you probably don’t think twice about… until you find a bunny stuck in one.

That’s exactly what happened to this little guy.

Michelle and I got him in, and when I saw him, I honestly felt my stomach drop. He was completely exhausted, with glue covering his body and absolutely no way to free himself.

I’ve seen a lot of things come through our doors, but there’s something especially heartbreaking about watching an animal struggle against something it has absolutely no way of understanding.

Michelle and I spent a lot of time carefully working to get the adhesive off of him without causing even more damage. Every little bit has to be done slowly because pulling too hard can take fur and skin with it.

And this is the part I really want people to know: glue traps don’t know what they’re catching.

A mouse might be the animal you intended to catch, but a bunny, bird, snake, lizard, or other small animal can just as easily find it first.

I know glue traps can seem like an easy solution when you have a pest problem. But after seeing what they can do to wildlife firsthand, I really hope you’ll consider a different option.

I would much rather see someone use a method that gives an animal a chance to get away than find another patient like this one stuck and exhausted in a trap.

Thankfully, Michelle and I got to be the people who helped him.

We’ll keep working on getting him cleaned up, hydrated, stabilized, and hopefully back where he belongs.

And if you’ve been following along, sharing our posts, donating, volunteering, or simply telling someone about what we do, thank you. I can’t say it enough: it really does make a difference.

Especially for little guys like this.

It’s easy to put out rat poison, but have you researched what it is, how it works, and how it affects every living thing around it? Poison is designed to kill, and it harms anything it comes in contact with—including our pets and wildlife—as it moves through the food chain. It is not our right to cause so much harm to other living creatures. We can do better. Please educate yourself and choose eco-friendly rodent control.

Pest Control companies are 1 billion annual industry. What do they care about hawks owls bobcats mountain lions and so many more they care about filling their monthly quotas for a have to good pay . All that Poison they put out, goes not just to our Wildlife, but it goes to our families or kids those mice die on our lawns in our backyards that Poison stays where our children play where our pets play it's an ugly industry that will lie through their teeth so they could get you to commit to their service. 

Another young red tailed hawk lost her life to rodenticide today, how can people and pest control companies live with themselves putting out poison!! You are not just killing rodents! You are killing all the animals that control rodent populations naturally!

Having seen situations where these dogs are tied with no room to move  left outside in the heat, no water, no shade is heartbreaking. So happy the city is finally cracking down on this.

The monarch migration is about to begin.
Hoping there's lots of wild flowers for them to enjoy and build up their strength.


The monarch migration is about to begin.

Along the way, they depend on native flowering plants to rest and refuel. Planting native wildflowers and milkweed in your yard or community is one simple way to help these remarkable travelers complete their journey.

Here's to safe travels, little monarchs.
