Stark Parks Avian Flight Cage
The new flight cage at Sippo Lake Park! Wild4Ever contributed $30,000.00 to build a large indoor flight facility for our cooperative wild bird rehabilitation program with Stark Parks’ new Wildlife Conservation Center. This flight cage will provide songbirds and raptors the space required to fly indoors as they regain their strength and heal, giving the birds the best possible chance to survive when they are released. This facility has already been put to work in 2018 and we have used it successfully to return many rehabilitated birds to the wild!
Wild4Ever was pleased to be asked to participate as a field veterinary consultant in the Division of Wildlife’s initial year of the project. This ODW project is gathering data to help monitor the growing population of black bears in NE Ohio. The bears are humanely trapped, immobilized by veterinary staff and measured for biologic data. DNA data is also retrieved and tracking collars are placed to allow future monitoring of their movements.
Wild4Ever is proud that its primary focus is on the preservation of local wild habitats along with the support of local conservation issues and animal sanctuaries. We are pleased to support Metro Parks Serving Summit County, Stark Parks, Friends of the Metro Parks, Medina Raptor, Project Orphan, Happy Trails Sanctuary and Noah’s Lost Ark sanctuary among others. In addition, Wild4Ever supports the annual medical care and rehabilitation of hundreds of injured native wild animals.
Wild4Ever, with the help of Metro Parks, Serving Summit County funded the construction of a condominium for a local bat population. The condo was placed on private property in Geauga County and will serve as maternity roost for thousands of big and little brown bats who raise their young together in colonies during the summer. Local bat populations face many survival risks including habitat destruction, pesticide use and white-nose syndrome. White-nose syndrome kills bats during hibernation and is greatly affecting little brown and big brown bat populations in the eastern United States. Providing this bat condominium will assure this local established maternity colony will have a place to raise their young for generations to come.
We would love to hear from you! If you’d like to join our group or want to donate to the cause… let us know.
