Sponsor an Animal

Northwoods Wildlife Center provides permanent sanctuary to over 20 wildlife ambassadors. These are animals that would have no chance of survival in the wild due to various injuries or ailments. Many of our wildlife ambassadors attend hundreds of educational programs throughout the Northwoods each year, educating over 10,000 visitors and citizens of the Midwest. Feeding, training, housing, enrichment, and the general husbandry of our residents costs over $7000 each year.
