SWRR - Domestic, Exotic and Farm Animals

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 the information below.
