What We Do

Nebraska Wildlife Rehab has a two-fold mission: to rescue, rehabilitate and return to the wild native wildlife and migratory birds and to educate people about the importance of wildlife and our native ecosystems. We care for over 6,500 wild animals and help more than 25,000 community members with wildlife inquiries each year.  We provide after-school programming in four middle schools, offer 15 full-time summer internships for university students, sponsor our own High School Science Academy, and provide dozens of additional programs about wildlife each year.
