Nature's Edge Wildlife and Reptile Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit wildlife rehabilitation facility and reptile rescue. We are state and federally permitted wildlife rehabilitators. We rehab all native reptiles, bats, birds of prey and mammals, on a limited basis.

We are also an exotic reptile rescue and take in all unwanted pet reptiles and amphibians. All animals that come into our care will receive necessary veterinarian care, treatment, behavior conditioning, etc. Once an animal is deemed healthy and adoptable, it will be placed up for adoption. All potential adopters must show knowledge of species, including proper housing, food, etc., before animals can be adopted.

Nature's Edge Wildlife and Reptile Rescue also conducts educational programs in the DFW area, primarily on reptiles and/or birds of prey. We focus on wildlife conservation, life history, habitat, adaptations and identification. We also provide information on minimizing human wildlife conflicts.

Nature's Edge Wildlife and Reptile Rescue does not receive any state or federal funding. We rely solely on tax-deductible donations from the public.
