What is Tamarack Wildlife
Rehabilitation & Education Center?
Tamarack was founded by Harriet Wilson with the purpose of providing
care, and medical treatment to injured,
orphaned, and ill wildlife, in order to return them to their natural habitat. Sue DeArment runs the center located at 21601 Stull Road, Saegertown, Pa.
Tamarack's main goals are:
1. To provide treatment for wild
2. To return wildlife to their natural
3. To promote the best interests of
Why are rehabilitators of
wildlife valuable to society?
They have the skills, and knowledge to
treat wild animals that have been
injured. (90% of injuries are due to
humans.)
They have the ability to treat threatened,
and endangered species. This can improve
populations of these animals in a given
area.
They encourage, and develop public
interest, and awareness in the conservation
of our wild resources.
They provide the public with information
on diseases of wildlife, and the impact
these diseases may have on the public.
What can I do if I find
an injured wild animal?
If you find an injured, or orphaned wild
animal, and it is SAFE to capture the
animal.
Find a box that is large enough to hold
the animal without cramping, but not so
big that the animal may further injure
itself.
Poke holes in the box to provide adequate
air supply before putting the animal in.
Put some sort of padding in the box that
the animal will not get tangled in.
(If possible, cover the box with a towel, and
place it on top of a heating pad on a low
setting.)
Place animal in box.
Cover the box. (It is important to keep the
animal in a warm, dark, quiet place until
it can be transported to the Center.)
Call the Center, and transport animal to
your local rehabilitator AS SOON AS
POSSIBLE.
DO NOT FEED, OR WATER THE ANIMALS !!!
IF IT IS NOT SAFE TO CAPTURE THE ANIMAL,
CALL YOUR LOCAL REHABILITATOR AS
SOON AS POSSIBLE, AND KEEP THE ANIMAL
WITHIN SIGHT.
