We're a non profit and do not charge for visits, we do accept donations. The Sea Biscuit Wildlife Shelter has special wildlife rehabilitation permits required by the Fish and Wildlife Service and the State of North Carolina in order to keep wild animals in captivity. Staff Members have years of experience and attend annual continuing education classes and conference

s to ensure our patients the best care. Volunteers are trained to handle patients, see to their diets and clean and monitor them daily. The shelter also partners with the North Carolina State University Veterinary School to research rehabilitation techniques and give veterinary students hands on experience. Our staff and volunteers participate in local events to educate the public about common wildlife injuries and how to help prevent these. The Sea Biscuit Wildlife Shelter is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization.

Of the three pelis, only 1 flew off! Two returned to SB. Being juvies, they need an adult to lead the way.

Wow!!! Sea Biscuit has a lot of exciting things happening:

First, check out our new website at seabiscuitwildlifeshelter.org Thanks to our web designer, Terry Idol, we have a beautiful new website. It has a lot of information and pictures. AND take a look at our new logo!

Second, the new facility is rapidly moving forward. The main building's interior is being renovated to house a clinic, kitchen, large and small bird critical care rooms, an office and a meeting/lobby area.
The new outdoor barn, under the construction supervision of Shawn Phelan, is looking great! It will have large and small, indoor and outdoor aviaries.

Third, we would like to thank all the people that have been involved in making this dream a reality. This includes everyone that has worked to get the construction completed. But, most importantly, this includes all of our sponsors and donors. Without you, we wouldn't have gotten this far. Every little bit has helped.

Watch for more updates and hopefully soon, an announcement that the new facility is up and running!

Tim & Tessa will be working overtime trying to teach the juvies how to survive. Erin's high tides cause a lot of damage to the pelican nests. So we have lots of juvies that need help surviving on their own.
