Peace River Wildlife Center

About

Working to protect our native Florida wildlife through rehabilitation, education and conservation efforts.

Story

Peace River Wildlife Center is a non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating southwest Florida's native wildlife. We admit injured and orphaned birds, mammals and reptiles and provide necessary medical treatment to aid recovery and re-release into their natural environment. Patients which are deemed non-releasable reside here at the center, where the public can learn about and see first-hand the wide variety of birds and mammals that co-inhabit our area.

Mission

The Mission of the Peace River Wildlife Center is to contribute to the survival of native Florida wildlife through rescue, rehabilitation and education.

Came out to Punta Gorda with my friend, and he showed me this little building tucked away in Ponce De Leon Park. Awesome job these people do rehabbing the wildlife and giving them a second chance. The birds looked well taken care of, and we got to see the Pelicans get fed at 2:30 (was told that's the time they are fed each day). What a cool experience. Bring cash to donate to these wonderful people. During the Pelican feeding, the staff member was very knowledgeable and taught us some fun things we didn't know about before. During the demonstration, a Great Egret came over and perched itself on the fence about 3 feet away as if it was a guest watching the Pelican demo. Made for a great photo op.

A great place to visit for any nature lover. It's a rehab facility with permanent residents to view which cannot be released back into the wild. Free admission but donation greatly needed and appreciated. Has a great little gift shop too.

We really like this little place they have a nice collection of animals there. They know what they are talking about and are sincere. We make it a point to visit several times a year.

I have been to this place many times. Every time I go I learned a bit more about these beautiful birds. My mom has given donations of different food products and cleaning products they will always accept them. Just give them a little call and they have a sheet of paper that tells you what things they can accept for donations . They even have a gift shop on premises the shirts are very reasonably priced I recommend visiting it. They also do educational things with the owl Luna. They live on donations so if you visit feel generous to give them a little bit of money.

The crew here do a wonderful job of helping hurt, injured wildlife. They also do a great job with educating people about the animals while there and around town during their educational presentations.
