As car after car passed a struggling seagull with a leg injury in commuter traffic on Rock Island Road, one concerned Margate resident pulled over to help the bird. After stopping traffic and shuffling the bird into a cage, the resident, who requested to remain anonymous, called the Wildlife Care Center in Fort Lauderdale for help.

Serving the South Florida Tri-County Region since 1969, the Center’s mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and release native wildlife that has been harmed or displaced, and to treat and place certain needy domestic, exotic and farm animals in safe homes.  

The center is funded entirely by donations and grants and provides rescue, rehabilitation and release services at no cost to citizens. The SPCA Wildlife Care Center is open 365 days a year and is committed to educating the public on co-existing peacefully with local wildlife.

If you have found injured or orphaned wildlife, call 954-524-4302 or 866-SOS-WILD.
