The Northwest Raptor & Wildlife Center
in Sequim, Washington is a state-licensed 501(c)(3) nonprofit
organization devoted to rehabilitating and caring for injured,
orphaned, abandoned, or permanently incapacitated wildlife. With a
special emphasis on caring for raptors (birds of prey), the Center
is the Olympic Peninsula’s foremost wildlife rehabilitation and
protection organization and is fully licensed and equipped to care
for the needs of any endangered animal. The Center also
specializes in promoting conservation of local habitat and
wildlife by presenting environmental education programs and public
outreach events using wild raptors.
All work is done by Director Jaye Moore, her
husband Gary, the generous support of
Greywolf Veterinary Hospital, and dedicated unpaid volunteers.
On average, it costs the Center $1000 per year to feed and
maintain each of the Center’s permanent residents, not to mention
the hundreds of injured or abandoned animals that are successfully
rehabilitated and released each year. The Center requires the
monetary donations of supporters worldwide to be able to continue
its work protecting the wildlife of Washington.
