DOMESTIC, FARM AND EXOTIC ANIMALS
Shasta Wildlife Rescue cannot accept any domestic animals including domestic birds (parakeets, lovebirds,
etc.). We also cannot accept farm and exotic animals. Our rehabilitation permit, which is issued by the U.S. Fish &
Wildlife Service, only allows us to provide rehabilitative care to certain non-domestic animals. For assistance with
these animals check out the links below.
