Dear Friend of the Animals,
Thanks to support from friends like you, the Pilar & Chuck
Bahde Wildlife Center can take in more than 100 injured, orphaned or sick wild
animals in a single day!
Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at a day inside the center where
we’re nursing orphaned squirrels, giving medical care to a wounded crow,
helping a juvenile barn owl prepare for life in the wild and so much more.
Each of these animals is receiving a second chance because of you.
Thank you for helping to save wild lives!

San Diego Humane Society’s humane law enforcement team doesn’t
just help companion animals — they’re out in the field making a difference for
wildlife, too! As the set-up for Comic-Con was being torn down on Monday, San
Diego Convention Center security noticed an opossum stuck on a 50-foot fence!
They called for help, and our Sgt. Austin Seuferer showed up to be the
stressed-out opossum’s superhero. Assisted by the staff at the convention
center, Sgt. Seuferer used a “scissor lift” to safely capture the opossum. He
then relocated the animal to a nearby area where it was nice and quiet, and
released him back into the wild!
