Opossums
Thank you for the overwhelming response for release sites for our opossums. We will be contacting those chosen in the next few days. The center has plenty of opossums but not enough for everyone that offered their land. We will select locations that are convenient for the staff, since we are busy and need to be feeding animals at the center. SWVAWCR will keep a log of extra release locations for the late summer-fall Opossums. Again, thanks to everyone that emailed us. Swvawildlifecenter.org swvawildlifecenter@gmail.c

American Robins
American Robins are the number one bird species we intake. With the development of human habitat, Robins can be a direct gauge of chemicals in the environment. Please consider using pesticide free products on your land. Swvawildlifecenter.org #swvawildlifecenter #americanrobins #firstsignofspring
