Happy National Wildlife Day! Today we celebrate all of the wonderful wild ones that are all around us! Part of our mission is education and outreach because as the late, great Steve Irvine said once "“If we can teach people about wildlife, they will be touched. Share my wildlife with me. Because humans want to save things that they love.”

Rehabilitating and releasing wild ones is hugely important and it makes all the difference in the lives of those animals; but teaching people to love and respect the wild ones around them is how we're trying everyday to change our little slice of the world in a big way. Every person who interacts with this page is another opportunity for us to shift the perspective from fear and misunderstanding to love and appreciation and that is how we keep saving lives. So today we celebrate our beloved wild ones, our mission to keep making a difference, and all of you!
Thank you all and have a wonderful Friday!

Happy Wild Wednesday everyone! Today we are celebrating another beautiful wild one returning to the wild! Our short tailed weasel girl is officially back out in the wild enjoying her life the way she deserves. Her release went so well and we know she'll thrive in her new home.
She was tentative at first, sniffing around and taking everything in from the safety of her box but as soon as she realized that she could explore, she was unstoppable! She zipped around the stumps and nearby leaves like she owned the place and now, she does!
Please help us wish her happy trails and enjoy seeing her first steps as a totally wild weasel! Make sure to check the comments for a video as well. Thank you everyone and have a great day!

Happy Tuesday everyone! Did you know that we have an eBay online shop for all your CVWR merchandise and cute wildlife goodies? We have everything from T-shirts to mugs and every penny goes right back into helping our beloved Wild Ones. I also always like to brag about our T-shirts, truly the quality is unmatched. You don't have to worry about our designs falling off or fading in the wash. Plus, all of our raccoon t-shirt designs feature our favorite ambassador, Mr. Merlot!

Our online shop is always available and we can ship all over the US but if you'd rather see some of our wares in person make sure to join us at Heartbreaker's End of Summer Vendor fair on Sunday August 23rd (go to our events to RSVP). Thank you everyone and have a great rest of your Tuesday!

Happy Too Cute Tuesday everyone! We have officially entered into the dog days of summer and that always means our favorite part of the summer has officially arrived. Mr. Merlot has been promoted once again to Uncle Merlot! This is a very important step for everyone involved and marks a big turning point for the kits.
Mr. Merlot is our adult ambassador raccoon and he absolutely adores the little ones. He is so gentle and patient with them but his time with them also teaches them something we never could, how to interact with other raccoons! In the wild, raccoon mothers spend a lot of time teaching their kits the ins and outs of life just like we do with our own kids! They learn boundaries, how to communicate, how to hunt, social skills, and survival skills. As rehabilitators, we do everything in our power to try and replicate as many of those lessons as possible through enrichment but we will never be able to replace the social and communication skills. That's why Mr. Merlot's willingness to interact with them is so important and an absolutely invaluable step in their development. It doesn't hurt that he absolutely loves it as much as they do. They spend their days grooming, learning, and playing which is all helping our kits become more successful future adults. The cuteness factor of them all cuddling up together doesn't hurt either.
These days don't last forever but we cherish them while they last. Plus they make for some of the best Too Cute Tuesday moments! Have a wonderful day everyone!
