🐿️ Meet Your Wild Neighbors 🐿️ 

Did you know that the DFW Metroplex is home to thousands of wild animals? As our cities grow, baby bunnies, ducklings, and fledgling birds frequently cross paths with humans. Every single day, the DFW Wildlife Coalition steps in to help. 

We are a 100% volunteer-operated nonprofit serving Dallas/Fort Worth and 20 surrounding counties. Our volunteers answer calls every day from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., and our AI Volunteer, Roxy, steps in 24 hours a day whenever volunteers aren't available to make sure no animal slips through the cracks.
