Wild Care’s Wild Encounters! Presenting at Cape Cod Beer 2/22

HYANNIS, MA— “Help! I found a baby bird!…There’s an orphaned squirrel at my doorstep… I just found an injured seabird… Now what do I do?”  On Wednesday February 22, stop by Cape Cod Beer to learn about Cape Wild Care’s animal rehabilitation strategies and hear stories from the field.

Executive Director Stephanie Ellis will present on Wild Care’s work as a rehabilitation center that serves over 1,200 animals per year ranging from injured Bald Eagles to Deer Mice. As part of the presentation, Stephanie will also share information on what to do when you find animals in distress and provide tips for living with our wild neighbors!

Wild Care, Inc. is a nonprofit wildlife hospital dedicated to the rescue and release of injured and orphaned wildlife on Cape Cod.

This presentation is another great opportunity to learn about nature in your backyard and enjoy some of Cape Cod Beer’s fine beverages.
