Unlike many rehabilitation facilities, CLAWS does not discriminate on species that we help.  We are permitted for almost every species that is legal in North Carolina.  Our clinic is staffed with 4 licensed wildlife rehabbers on site.  We have 4 additional licensed rehabbers.  We also operate 2 satellite locations to help extend our coverage area and help with the high patient volumes.  CLAWS also works with eight veterinarians who have extensive experience with wildlife, state of the art facilities and are available to help 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. 

Wildlife has no "designated work hours" so, neither does our clinic. 

CLAWS, Inc.  is now accepting apprentices for people who wish to learn to rehabilitate small mammals and birds.  Please email mrsclaws@nc-claws.org if you are interested in taking these classes.  

Please consider sponsoring one of our rehabilitating animals, to help us defray the costs and to give you a chance to help the animals.

For those who have sent us patients for rehabilitation, you are welcome to email us and ask about the patients.  We will gladly keep you updated in this fashion.

We are grateful to touch a small part of these wonderful creatures lives - and we grow to love each and every one of them.  With each animal, there comes a time when our job is complete and it is time to let them go and live the life they were born to live, wild and free.  While each release is bittersweet, we rejoice in the hard road we've traveled together knowing that we've helped in some small way.  Yet, as we release each darling, we release a piece of our hearts with each one of these babies that we've grown to love so much.

These pictures are a memorial to the special relationship with these sweet, yet sometimes challenging animals.
