HummingbirdThe Humboldt Wildlife Care Center, established in 1979, is a non-profit, permitted, all volunteer organization dedicated to the rescue, treatment, and rehabilitation of orphaned and injured wildlife in Humboldt, Trinity, and Del Norte Counties. Our ultimate goal is to release strong and healthy animals back into their native habitat. The HWCC provides care for most native species of birds and small mammals, including protected and endangered wildlife. Animals that cannot be treated by our organization are transported to other specialized rehabilitation centers.
