WHO WE ARE: Nature’s Nursery Center for Wildlife Rehabilitation and Conservation Education is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization located in Whitehouse, Ohio. We provide medical care to injured, orphaned or ailing wild animals, and conduct conservation educational outreach programs for children and adults. OUR MISSION: “Our mission is to improve the well-being of Northwest Ohio wildlife population

s and habitats through public education and rehabilitation, with an emphasis on coexistence.”

EDUCATION: Through our community education programming, we reach over 15,000 children and adults through. We use our animal ambassadors to teach the importance of our local wild populations, how to protect their habitats and how best to live in harmony with the wildlife in our own backyards.

Operating with a small staff, we are grateful for our dedicated volunteers who donate thousands of hours every year. Through donor philanthropy, volunteerism and community activism, Nature’s Nursery is able to educate the public about conservation issues, the value of wildlife and how to live in harmony with our wild surroundings to reduce human/wildlife conflict.

Did you know that owls cannot roll their eyes….even the teenage ones! 😂
Kidding aside, it’s true. Owls have tube-shaped eyes that are locked tight inside the skull by rigid bony structures called sclerotic rings. Because they are completely immobilized, owls cannot use peripheral vision to track objects.
Instead they have incredibly flexible necks that allow their heads to rotate 270 degrees to keep watch on what’s happening around them!

We know it's not always convenient. You are busy. Life is busy. There are places you need to be and things you need to do and when that wild animal in need of help shows up in your yard, or in front of your car, or at your office....it can be a big old pain of responsibility that you weren't looking for.
BUT, just maybe that animal is giving you a gift. A brief reminder to slow things down. A moment to remember that you can make a difference through compassion and kindness.
Because while your day might be interrupted, that animal’s entire world just changed because of you.

This sweet opossum came in full of babies with a large mass on her side. We have been caring for her for several weeks and now that her babies are big and strong we were able to separate her to have surgery to remove the mass. It was very superficial and not adhered and she is healing up great.
And….she is a fabulous patient.
