open a wildlife rehabilitation centre for fawns and other wildlifeConstance Creek Wildlife Refuge

Once CCWR can officially open its wildlife rehabilitation program, the community in and around Ottawa will have a place to contact when concerned about a wildlife issue. We will take in any wildlife that appears ill, orphaned or injured and provide appropriate veterinary care. We will vaccinate wildlife in our care to prevent the spread of disease. We will provide education to foster an appreciation of wildlife and the positive role it can play in our lives. We will provide a voice for wildlife in the city planning process to help build a city with a vision that includes wildlife by maintaining green corridors and conserving biodiverse areas. In addition to these services, we will engage Ottawa communities and develop their capacity to educate about wildlife from within. We want the community to embrace our project and take ownership of it so that CCWR belongs to the people of Ottawa. We encourage volunteer contributions, with volunteers taking on every role in running CCWR.
