Overview

Mission

Provides wildlife and feral exotic pets access to critical and life-saving veterinary care while teaching others about our wildlife neighbors and responsible pet ownership.

What it reported doing in 2022

Covid-19 also impacted our ability to conduct educational programming. In addition restrictions were executed as a result of government guidelines due to an active outbreak of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza further reducing our ambassador educational programming ability. Government mandates relative to events and wildlife regulatory guidelines pertaining to the exhibit and protection of wildlife within captivity caused our educational programs to be reduced. We were able to conduct 12 educational programs during 2022 that reached 120 attendees during the pandemic. We continued to care for 25 exhibit and sanctuary animals funded through our rehabilitative and wildlife veterinary treatment program as described in 4a above.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
