The Wildlife Rescue Center of the Hamptons, Inc is a not-for-profit corporation dedicated to the rehabilitation of wild animals accidentally impacted. It is a grass roots organization that grew from a few concerned friends to a group of over 1000 members and supporters. The center is a full-time professional wildlife hospital staffed by licenced rehabilitators, biologists, animal behaviorists and volunteers. Over 100 people have been trained to assist in wildlife rescues.

The Wildlife Rescue Center is located on Munns Pond Park through a cooperative licensing agreement with Suffolk County Department of Parks, Recreation and Conservation. The center is situate on a greenbelt of public land parcels totaling several thousand acres and stretches from Tiana Bay to Peconic Bay located on the eastern end of Long Island, New York. This is a unique and irreplaceable ecosystem consisting of salt and fresh water wetlands, pine barrens, deciduous forest and meadowland. It is the perfect setting for a wildlife rehabilitation center. The hospital is designed exclusively for wild animals . Unlike a veterinary hospital, there are no ambient noises or smells to stress the wildlife that are recovering within.

The center is open seven days a week throughout the year (summer: 8am-8pm/ winter: 8am-6pm) A wildlife hotline operator will be there to assist you during these times. Also, explicit instructions have been left on a tape for after hour callers to reach a trained rehabilitator at any hour.

The Wildlife Rescue Center receives over 10,000 calls a year for information or assistance with wild animal encounters. Last year (2004) was our busiest year to date with 973 admissions to the hospital, 566 renesting projects and 186 assists to the police and animal control departments due to an epidemic of raccoon distemper. We also provide educational programs to local elementary and secondary schools. Students from local colleges participate in cooperative education programs and internships.
