He was just released today! This red tailed hawk came to us three weeks ago. He was unable to stand, very thin, very weak and his blood wouldn’t clot normally. After being treated for rat poison, he is a whole new hawk. Strong and majestic, as nature intended. Ready to help us control the rodent population for free…

We see this a lot of sick predators come into the rescue after they eat rodents that have been poisoned.

Wildlife rehabilitators have been complaining about the effects rodenticides are having on our predator species for years….

We just had more yard signs made and will post about how you can get your soon! We ordered them in bulk and aren’t trying to make anything off of them. We just want to get them out there so we can spread the information.

Most people wouldn’t use these poisons if they really understood the impact they have on non target species.

Education is key. Let’s help spread the word.

Keep checking back and we will let you know how you can get your yard sign!

It’s a hard life…

Got this amazing shot of one of our raccoon kits today.

Those little hands aren’t just ridiculously cute.

Raccoons have extremely sensitive front paws packed with sensory receptors, which help them identify and manipulate objects. Just one reason they’re such talented problem-solvers!

We frequently receive calls about “baby” skunks that are actually adults. Many people don’t realize how small they are. When we received a call yesterday about a baby skunk, we figured it was a mistake. Skunks are pretty much done having babies for the season. Just to be sure, we always ask for a picture.

Sure enough, it was a tiny orphaned baby skunk in need of help.

When she arrived, our staff found fly eggs on her little bum during her initial exam. Those had to be removed asap before they hatched and wrecked havoc on the poor little one.

That meant working on the one area we often try to avoid on skunks…

Brave team members Jackie and Thaine were able to remove all the eggs and the baby skunk allowed them to get away with it.

Everyone left the interaction unscathed.

It was a miracle 😂.

We are happy to report the little one is feeling much better today ❤️

Great information! 👏👏👏

We know many of you were not able to purchase a ticket for the “Dinner with Nibi” event in time as they sold out in under two hours.

DO NOT BUY TICKETS from anyone but us selling them. There are scammers out there trying to take advantage of people.

This was the first event we have done like this and weren’t sure what the public response would be. We expected it to take atleast a day to sell out.

We may do a Christmas one, if all goes well with this one. If you are interested in that, I can put your info on a mailing list for the next one. I will put my email address in the comments and you can send me an email that says “Dinner with Nibi” in the subject and I will add your email address to the list.

Also, please make sure you are following us and have us listed as favorites so you get our FB posts at the top of your feed. We announce most things on this page!

Thank you all so much for all the support!

UPDATE: This event is SOLD OUT

DINNER WITH NIBI: An Enchanted Evening…

For the first time ever, we’re inviting you to dinner with Nibi!

Looking for a night out that’s a little different?

Join us for a truly one of a kind evening filled with great food, live music, candlelight, laughter, stories - and, of course, one very special beaver.

Begin the evening with cocktail hour and live guitar music, then settle in for a beautiful candlelit catered dinner as we take you behind the scenes and tell Nibi’s incredible story from the very beginning.

From a tiny orphaned baby beaver found alone beside a busy road, to a world-famous wildlife ambassador who captured hearts around the globe, Nibi’s journey became something none of us ever could have imagined.

She became more than one little beaver.

Nibi became a voice for an entire species.

Her story has reached people around the world and helped change the way people see beavers. These animals are so often misunderstood, but play an extraordinary role in our environment. She has given us an incredible platform to teach people why beavers matter, why they deserve our protection, and how we can find better ways to coexist with them.

And this night is our chance to celebrate that incredible journey together. ❤️

Your ticket includes a delicious catered dinner, dessert, live guitar music during cocktail hour, an evening with Nibi, and your very own commemorative Nibi glass to take home.

And while this is going to be a really fun night out, it has an even bigger purpose:

By coming to dinner, you’re helping us save wildlife.

Proceeds from Dinner with Nibi directly support the lifesaving work of Newhouse Wildlife Rescue and help us continue giving injured and orphaned wild animals the second chances they deserve.

Tickets: $100 per person

18+ only

ONLY 150 tickets will be available to purchase.

This is an experience we have never offered before, and we expect tickets to sell quickly.

Come for the food. Come for the music. Come for the experience. Come for Nibi.

And go home knowing that one unforgettable night out helped us save more wildlife.

***A few important notes about Nibi

Nibi will be present at the event and will have her own special table and space. Despite the name “Dinner with Nibi,” she will not actually be seated at guests’ dinner tables.

Guests are not permitted to touch or handle Nibi. Sorry, it’s the law and we don’t want to stress her.

We hope to offer guests the opportunity to have a special photo taken with Nibi. However, photos with Nibi are not guaranteed and will depend entirely on her comfort and willingness that evening.

As always, Nibi comes first. If at any point she shows us that she needs a break or is finished participating, we will respect that immediately. Her comfort and well-being will always take priority over every other part of the event - and we know the people who love her wouldn’t want it any other way.

This is an adults-only event. All guests must be 18 years of age or older on the date of the event.

Alcohol will be available for purchase. Non-alcoholic drinks included in ticket.

*The app will ask you for a 17% tip at check out - that’s not for us. It’s for the app and you do NOT have to pay that. You can enter 0 or whatever number you want.

We have an announcement coming!
Just as soon as I can get her majesty to cooperate for this photoshoot…

***Disclaimer - This is an educational beaver, named Nibi. The photo was taken in her enclosure with her caretaker. Please do not try to sit at a table with a wild beaver - especially in a nice dress. It won’t end well for you or the dress.

This red tailed hawk has been with us for about a week now. Being treated for an injured leg and rodenticide poison.

He wasn’t able to stand up when he first arrived, but look at him now…

Giving us the evil eye and everything. ❤️

This painted turtle had a rough weekend. They are known as “natural cleaners” as they consume carrion, dead fish, and decaying plants. This helps the environment by preventing the buildup of harmful toxins like ammonia and phosphorus in the water.

They weren’t built to clean our trash…

Please dispose of fishing gear properly.

The good news is the hook is now out and this little one is expected to make a full recovery. ❤️‍🩹

This baby opossum is one of over 20 intakes today.She looks grateful… ❤️
