PLEASE DONT ASK ME IF WE ARE OK WITH SOME LITTLE FIREWORKS BEING SHOT THIS YEAR. WE ARE NOT. DONT ASK.

We are not against fireworks when they are not beside my house. Remember we do not do fireworks for the following reasons.

Fireworks can be a significant trigger for veterans with PTSD, evoking traumatic memories and causing intense distress. The sounds, sights, and smells of fireworks can resemble combat experiences, leading to flashbacks, anxiety, and other PTSD symptoms.

Fireworks can pose a direct threat to wildlife. Birds may be startled and fly into structures or power lines, resulting in injuries or fatalities. Small animals like mammals, reptiles, and amphibians can be frightened or injured by fireworks, leading to stress, accidents, or even death.

Fireworks displays can be stressful and dangerous for livestock. Animals like horses and farm animals can be easily startled by the loud noises and bright flashes of fireworks, potentially leading to injuries from running into fences or other obstacles. Additionally, debris from fireworks can pose a choking hazard or be toxic if ingested.

We have all the above and we loss a high dollar bird last year which was not cool. Our large animals was running crazy in the pasture trying to find safety. Our smaller animals we running in panic.

Please do not light fireworks near my house we have wildlife, exotics, livestock, poultry, peacocks, ostriches, and rhea. emus. Please be respectful.

I have my animals secured and if I loose another animal because of this let's say it won't be pretty.

PLEASE DONT ASK ME IF WE ARE OK WITH SOME LITTLE FIREWORKS BEING SHOT THIS YEAR. WE ARE NOT. DONT ASK.

This month is a milestone for Angie and I. This makes 20 years we have been USDA and Alabama DNR Licensed. We started as Ron's Kritter Kids and changed our name to Kritter Kids Kountry Korner. We have been caring for handicapped and disabled raccoons. We gotten raccoons from all over the United States but we only take in the handicap and disabled. They came missing limbs, blind, deaf, brain damage, paralyzed, survivors of diseases like parvo, Distemper, cerebellar, poison, and coonhound paralyzes all of these fur kids are also affected with neurological issues. We have had close to 300 raccoons come here to live their life out with love and care. Some did not live long but all had the best love, caring that we could give
Now we have had great success alot of our distemper, parvo and cerebellar survivors are in their teens. We have a raccoon documented age she will be 20 February 14. We have another raccoon that is a movie star Ginger. We have a great vet that helps us keep them healthy. For years we have had up to 30 handicapped for kids to care for. Now we are down to 16 raccoons. But we have extra add ons such as skunks, foxes, and a few exotic animals given to us. We don't ask for help from anyone anymore because the cries for help are answered only for rehabbers. We don't join rooms because everyone seems to think they know everything there is to know and don't want to hear experience from all the years of doing this. The Biggest advise I will offer is: Do not start with handicap and disabled raccoons or any Wildlife without being fully licensed State and Federal. Also you need to be fully aware this is a LIFETIME commitment. You cannot start then decide to quit because unlike domestic animals raccoons have a death sentence they can't be given away.
So if you want to protect them get the proper licenses. Alot of people know us on here.

Our Story

Kritter Kids Wildlife Education has been helping not only educate people but saving animal lives for many years. Even though almost all the animals we have are handicap or disable this does not mean we are limited to animals with disabilities only. When we started with the animals, Ron and I made the decision that we would only keep none releasable animals, we want to give these animals a second chance in life. We believe that healthy animals that can be released should be. We are not rehabbers but we have raised a lot of the animals that are at our facility from babies. With this being said we are exhibitors (aka zoo). Our facility is not opened to the public but we do allow private showing when requested. We take our animals to places ie..schools, bark in the parks, children with disabilities and handicap/wounded warriors, etc. We are not a non profit organization all money received goes straight back into the animals. We started out with raccoons, foxes, groundhogs and when we got our first exotic the kinkajou we fell in love with them and got coati’s and lemurs. We are not limited to only small animals like any zoo we can have large animals. But until we have a large enough property they will have to wait. We are federal and state licensed. Ron writes a monthly article for a newspaper on animals.

We both have taken the following courses: Growing up Wild, Project Wild as Certified Instructors, Project Learning Tree, and Certified Project Wild and Advanced Project Wild Teachers. Our main goal is a commitment to connecting young children to nature.
