| Welcome to WildKritters! |
We need each other to keep our environment healthy.The animals are unintentionally being injured or orphaned as their habitats rapidly fade away into roads and buildings. Please take a few minutes to learn how we help each other & how we can co-exist peacefully. It is, most often, is just understanding the roles that humans and animals have. Wild Kritters of Niagara County is a non-profit group of State & Federally licensed volunteers who rescue injured & orphaned wildlife in distress. Wild Kritters cares for and raises the animals to released back to the wild as quickly as possible. With proper medical care, and intensive nursing practices most the animals rescued will be released back to their natural habitat. This is often time intensive and each animal has unique needs because of injuries, nutritional status. The day comes to release or "foster kids" and all of the efforts & time are worth it. Wild Kritters get animals native to our area along with the migratory birds that are federally protected, and even some non-native animals . Yep several years ago we got an alligator, the DEC helped get him back to a proper environment. For more stories see our new story page
