Volunteers at the facility are well-trained to perform a variety of functions from animal pickups and releases, providing rehabilitative care, feeding, conducting educational programs, and other critical functions. Volunteers through workplace and community organizations perform valuable construction and maintenance functions, keeping ongoing facility costs low, including lending their talents to make arts and crafts available for sale through our website, tradeshows and auctions.
Calgary Wildlife is also supported by veterinarians during the rescue process. Over 40 veterinary clinics in Calgary and the surrounding area receive wildlife on our behalf, temporarily housing (but not treating) the animals until volunteer transport arrives, without any charges in most cases.
The volunteer Board of Directors and committees, such as Fundraising and Communications, also contribute countless hours planning, assisting staff, fundraising, and advocating for Calgary Wildlife.
Save wildlife. Meet like-minded friends. Learn valuable skills.
