Patient Profiles

Every day new patients arrive at our facility. We see over 3,000 patients annually. Over 135 different species come to us for care. In an effort to tell their stories of survival and highlight the diverse number of species that we rehabilitate, we try to share some of their stories here. You can also see posts on our social media pages.

Beaver

She was found in a drainage ditch on the side of the road. There is a constriction injury to one foot. Our vet, Dr. Kovar, was able to do a full exam and radiographs did not show any fractures. She is on medications and is very scared. We know she is young, as the growth plates are visible on the x-rays. Status: Euthanized. Sadly, after two months in care we had to make the difficult decision to euthanize her. She was clearly suffering from some neurological or developmental issues. She was actually afraid of water and would not stay in any tubs or pools. This caused problems with her skin and fur, as she would not groom herself. We had a tough time maintaining her weight and getting her to eat enough. Lab results were inconclusive, she was simply a "failure to thrive" case.
