Our volunteers are available from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. seven days a week, including holidays. The Hotline Number is a 24 hour answering service available for after hours, to take messages. There are some volunteers that are available for after-hours calls, depending on the type of animal.
Please call the Hotline if you have questions about a wild animal, need assistance with an injured or orphaned animal or you would like more information on becoming a member of WRT! Our monthly meetings take place every second Tuesday at Grace Lutheran Church at 22nd & Washington in Lincoln. 7 p.m.
During the spring and summer months our volunteers are very busy with animal care. If there is any way you can transport the animal to a WRT member, it would be very helpful and much appreciated. The on-call person can direct you to the closest WRT volunteer available based on your location. |
