Cuan Wildlife Rescue

A registered charity dedicated to the care and rehabilitation of sick, injured and orphaned wild animals and birds. We are the only wildlife rescue centre in Shropshire to offer a round-the-clock service.

As well as our day-to-day work looking after the county’s”wild creatures, we also aim to educate the public in the care and rehabilitation of wildlife and undertake research and advise other organisations in the field of wildlife rehabilitation.

Each year, we admit around 4,800 wildlife casualties. Once they’re well enough, the creatures we look after are always returned to the wild. Adults, particularly, will be released where they were found – they may have a mate waiting and will be returned to familiar territory.

Our primary goal is to always to give the creatures a second chance at life. The vast majority of the wild creatures that come into a rescue centre is a result of man’s interference, be it accidental or deliberate. Road casualties, traps, snares, poisons, litter, shooting, garden ponds and many more inflict suffering, misery and death on innocent creatures.

If we were not here doing what we do, many of these creatures would die an unthinkable death.
