Carolina Wildlife Sanctuary Inc

We are dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation, and release of sick, injured, and orphaned wildlife in and around the Cabarrus County area. Our goal is to care for these animals so that they can be released back into the wild where they belong.

As a nonprofit corporation, Carolina Wildlife Sanctuary operates with volunteers only and has no paid staff. We do not receive any government funding. We plan to raise funds through private donations, support from local businesses, as well as funding from grants and other foundations.

Cabarrus County is about 364 square miles with a growing population of almost two hundred thousand people and there is currently no wildlife facility. The animals in our county are in need of a safe place to recover from their injuries. It is essential for Cabarrus County to have a facility in which wildlife can be rehabilitated before its release into a natural habitat. Carolina Wildlife Sanctuary is working to make that happen with a variety of cages, aquariums, and aviaries to house a wide range of birds, native reptiles, and small mammals. We also plan on having multiple flight cages to meet the needs of young birds or birds with wing injuries that need to learn how to fly without the risk of predators or harsh elements.

We are working on building multiple flight cages and new hospital for patients to receive treatment until they are ready to go into the outdoor caging.
