The Staff at Willowbrook have gone above and beyond, especially during this pandemic. They’re working night and day to make sure animals in need have a safe place.

Willowbrook Wildlife Center takes in abandoned and injured wildlife. They have a small visitors center which houses smaller birds, reptiles and amphibians. Outside you can view larger birds (owls, eagles etc) and mammals. They have a butterfly garden, lake and Koi pond. The facility is small so perfect for young children. And the best part is it is Free!! Material and financial donations are welcomed. They release all animals that can survive back in the wild.
