One of my friend’s bones I cleaned! This lil guy was caught in a forest fire postmortem, and has become one of the coolest skulls I’ve cleaned.

Okay, this is…way outside of my usual.
First of all, animal tax for taking your time (more photos further down I can’t format worth anything lol)
I volunteer with a local wildlife rehabilitation center. The only state, federal, and USDA licensed one in the upper 26 counties of the Texas Panhandle, although we have cared for animals from all over the state. We’ve had everything from half-tamed bengal cats come in from a hoarder’s house to a million and one orphaned starlings in our doors.
There’s always a lot of animals, no matter what, because unfortunately the education towards wildlife in this area is exceedingly poor and most people are either afraid of most animals or see them as nothing more than pests. We’ve had a fair number of animals shot, poisoned, trapped, the parents killed and then the land/homeowner finds the nest of babies…the list goes on.
To combat this, we have always pushed education. We have programs all across the area, we go to schools and churches and scout groups. We’re currently working on building an education building, both to give our educational ambassadors larger and nicer habitats to live in and to have a place to hold events for the community. As the founder of the center always says, “You can’t love what you don’t know”.
This building is by no means cheap. We’re getting close to having it fully funded, but we’re short by several thousand dollars.
Currently, we are having our biggest donation drive of the year, and our goal is to try to have most of the education building paid off from this. We’re also having a bit of a friendly competition among the volunteers to see who can get the most donations.
The best part of this is no matter how small the donation may be, we have donors who are going to amplify the donations. So even if you only give a small amount, it will be worth a lot more!
To donate, go here.
Thank you in advance to everyone who gives or reblogs to spread this!
The promised animal tax:

Gray fox and Great Horned Owl. There was also a funny raccoon but I forgot to snap a photo of him.
