WildCare Transition Up and Running
All of WildCare's Programs are now at WildCare Transition!
While we rebuild our new facility at our Albert Park Lane location, WildCare has relocated all of our programs, including the Wildlife Hospital, to a Transition location. We'll be operating out of WildCare Transition for two years.
The Transition facility is bright, cheerful and full of smiling faces!
We are accepting injured and orphaned wildlife patients at WildCare Transition from 9am - 5pm, seven days a week! Call the WildCare Hotline at 415-456-7283 and click here for directions to WildCare Transition.
Take a spin through WildCare's Transition location in the video below, and enjoy this lively one-minute tour!

As you probably know, WildCare, in one iteration or another, occupied our site at Albert Park Lane for 70 years. The center was a natural history museum for many years until the wildlife hospital opened in that building in 1974 as the Marin Center for Wildlife.
We took the name WildCare in 1996 as a result of the merger between the wildlife hospital (then called the California Center for Wildlife) and the Terwilliger Nature Education Center.
Over those many years we have treated more than 120,000 individual wild animals, and educated more than 1 million children and adults to love and appreciate wildlife! What an amazing accomplishment!
This move is long overdue, and, although leaving the old building with all of its memories was bittersweet, the bright new future for WildCare makes it all worth it.
