The Sea Biscuit Wildlife Shelter has special wildlife rehabilitation permits required by the Fish and Wildlife Service and the State of North Carolina in order to keep wild animals in captivity. Staff Members have years of experience and attend annual continuing education classes and conferences to ensure our patients the best care. Volunteers are trained to handle patients, see to their diets and clean and monitor them daily. The shelter also partners with the North Carolina State University Veterinary School to research rehabilitation techniques and give veterinary students hands on experience. Our staff and volunteers participate in local events to educate the public about common wildlife injuries and how to help prevent these.
The Sea Biscuit Wildlife Shelter is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization.
