Wild Rabbits

If you find a wild rabbit that needs help or what appears to be some abandoned baby rabbits, please contact the following organizations. Many times people see the babies and think they are abandoned. Before you disturb the nest please consider the fact that wild rabbits only nurse for a few minutes at night and moms vanish the rest of the day. If you still feel the babies are in danger, contact a wildlife care center.
