Education, rescue and sanctuary for exotic birds and reptiles throughout Wisconsin.

LARRS was founded in March of 2015 for the purpose of educating exotic bird and reptile owners, providing rescue and sanctuary for avian and reptilian animals, and placement of these animals in permanent home via adoption whenever possible. We seek to provide birds and reptiles an improved life by providing proper nutrition and care as well as education to current and potential owners. We work closely with other shelters, organizations and veterinarians throughout the State of Wisconsin to make sure that birds and reptiles (and sometimes other animals too) are provided with the best care possible. In addition to all of this, we offer boarding for birds and reptiles, wing clipping for birds and nail trimming for birds and reptiles.

Introducing Petunia! Petunia is a female sulcata tortoise searching for her forever home. She's a bit shy and takes a while to warm up, but she's got a great appetite and a pleasant demeanor. She's looking for someone to treat her as part of the family. Sulcata tortoises are VERY long-living animals and considerations will need ot be made for when she gets big OR when you get old - please have a plan. Petunia did not come with an age, but we believe she is at least 15 years old and weighs inn at around 30 pounds. Petunia's diet consists of orchard grass hay, dark leafy greens, and a variety of other vegetables. Carrots are always a welcome treat! If you're interested in giving this girl a home, apply on our website!

Introducing Skittles! Skittles is an un-sexed Lutino Lovebird. Skittles is not hand tame and will need a large flight cage. Although not hand tame, Skittles is used to us opening the door to give food and water without flying away. If you're looking for a project bird with whom you can gradually work on gaining trust, Skittles is your bird. Skittles is eating Roudybush pellets and bird chop. Want to give Skittles a forever home?

Can't get behind the breeding as a rescue that frequently sees and experiences overcrowding (at least here in the US), but holy cow this woman is spot on with care and requirements! And YES I am responsible for judgement here at the rescue when placing animals and it's a huge responsibility that I also do not take lightly. Don't like it? Too bad. I'm responsible for these animals' futures and will not place an animal in a home that will not provide the best care. We take adoptions very seriously.

Introducing George and Ethel! George and Ethel are a bonded pair of crested geckos. Be prepared to pull eggs as this a a male/female duo. Our rescue will not adopt to you if your plans are to breed as it is against our policy. George is quite tame and we usually have a hard time getting him off our hands and back into his enclosure. Ethel is very much so a "don't touch me" kind of a gal. George is a "frog bum" meaning that he lost his tail at some point - but we think that adds to his charm. They are currently eating a mixture of Pangea and Rapashy crested gecko food. Want to give these guys a home?

Introducing Mango! Mango is an un-sexed Lovebird looking for his/her forever home. This bird has a Napoleon personality and is very independent, but will step up on sleeves for a treat. Trust is a must to earn with this bird! Mango is eating Roudybush pellets and bird chop. We do not have an age on Mango as we are the third place of residence that we know of for this bird, but we do suspect that Mango is a younger bird. Mango used to be a class pet, then went to live with a family who could no longer care for Mango.

Introducing Kalua! Kalua is an un-sexed, approximately 22 year oldBlue Front Amazon. Kalua is very sweet and seems to prefer most women over men. Kalua is blind, but gets around the cage just fine. Kalua will be coming with a cage for the adoption as that has been this bird's home and Kalua knows where everything is located. Kalua came to the rescue underweight from owners who were distraught and did not feel they were giving Kalua enough. Kalua knows how to say, "Hi Kalua!" as well as laughs quite often. Kalua eats very well and is on a diet of Roudybush pellets and bird chop with treats of nutriberries once a week. Kalua will require regular supervised baths in your bathtub of shower as Kalua has some problems cleaning his/her bum, but Kalua LOVES shower time! New owners should be prepared to provide regular veterinary care and lots of love, but also understand that Kalua uses his/her beak to feel around in the world and for support since Kalua is blind. Will you give Kalua a chance at loving home?

Introducing the Regents! The Regents are Regent Parrots, otherwise known as Rock Pebblers. They are native to Australia, but we were told they were born in captivity. They are not hand-tame, but not aggressive birds. They talk to each other with a soothing little warble. They need a home where they have space to fly around and get exercise and a very large flight cage. They are eating Roudybush pellets and chop. They are curious, but hands off at this time. Proper diet and training may lead to some level of taming in these little sweethearts, but you should not expect to have a cuddly pair of birds. They must come as a pair as they are very bonded. Want to give these guys a loving forever home?
