Thankful for Two Grants and an Unusual Intake

Thank you to the Wildlife Support Charitable Trust for a $12,000 grant which will be used for operating expenses in 2023. We are very grateful for the Trust’s continuing  support of BMW.

We are also very grateful to an anonymous donor who sent a $25,000 grant this week. The grant will be placed in BMW’s Building Fund for a new hospital. Thank You!

Weekly Update

The Tri-Cities Center had a quiet week. Volunteer Kathy in Yakima removed fishing line tangled around a Great Blue Heron’s head and beak and then released the bird. An American Kestrel was admitted to the Pendleton Center. It had very serious head trauma that was not repairable and was euthanized. 

Honduran Milksnake

The folks at the Hermiston Goodwill Store were pretty surprised when they opened a box to find a snake inside! We consulted with former intern Adrian to find out she is a Honduran Milksnake, a non-native snake who was someone’s pet. Adrian is finding the snake a good home. Isn’t she beautiful!
