WildCare is a wonderful local organization right in the heart of San Rafael and Marin County. Come visit us!
50 years ago WildCare was the Louise A. Boyd Natural History Museum. Generations of Marin residents knew of our location as a source of information and education on the natural world. In 1974 the first wildlife rehabilitation hospital opened at our location-- the California Center for Wildlife. Since then, wildlife rehabilitation has grown and now WildCare is a fully functional wildlife hospital treating and releasing thousands of animals each year from more than 200 different species.
In 1994 the California Center for Wildlife merged with the Terwilliger Nature Education Center to become WildCare as we know it today-- an amazing resource for injured and orphaned wildlife and for teachers, schools and parents throughout the Bay Area.
