A safe haven for native animals

Our patients recover at our centre after treatment at Wildbase Hospital, they change regularly as they recover and are released back into the wild.

Our resident animals are with us all the time so there is always something to see.

What are the vets doing to help me?

The vets have removed some of my damaged primary feathers and given me lots of supportive care to reduce inflammation.
