Wild Care Friends
Wild Care has received over 210 rabbits this year. Nearly double the number of rabbits received in 2018. Most of these rabbits are orphans that have been brought to us due to cats and dogs getting into their nests, landscapers, and people who unintentionally have run over a rabbit nest with their lawnmower...
Rabbits are an incredibly delicate species to rehabilitate. They have sensitive gastrointestinal systems, and require specialized handling, care and nutrition.
Rabbits that are injured or are weanlings, are kept at Wild Care where they are provided with medication, nutrition, and care, until release.
Orphaned rabbits that are brought to us with their eyes still closed, are in need of even
more
intensive care. These rabbits go home with Kristine Beebe. Kristine is a licensed MA Wildlife Rehabilitator who has specialized in the care of orphaned rabbits in her home, for over 24 years.
Wild Care supports Kristine during the spring and summer seasons by providing her with rabbit supplies, and reimbursements for supplies. In a "normal" season, Kristine will rehabilitate 50-75 rabbits.This year, Kristine has rehabilitated
over 90 orphaned rabbits.
