Tucson Wildlife Center (Official channel)

Tucson Wildlife Center was established in 1998 by Lisa Bates and Peter Lininger and became a 501(c)3 in 2000. At that time, we were immediately available to take in wild animals that had nowhere else to go.  From that point on, animals began pouring through the front door of the center.

Tucson Wildlife Center operates the only full-service, state-of-the-art wildlife rescue hospital in Southern Arizona.  Services provided by Tucson Wildlife Center include an emergency helpline operating 24/7, 365 days a year, the capture and transportation of injured animals, a 24-hour emergency room, staff wildlife veterinarians on call 24/7, rehabilitation, release, and education.  All services are provided free to the public.
