Thank you to Open Harvest in Lincoln for choosing us to be the SEED program recipient during the month of March! Customers spent the month rounding-up for wildlife at the register! We also had two outreach events onsite. Thank you to all of you who donated to our group and to those who stopped by our table to say hello.
Open Harvest is located at 330 S 21st St #104 in the Telegraph Dist. in Lincoln. (For those of you familiar with the Nebraska Passport Program - Open Harvest is a stop for 2025! It hasn't started yet, so you will have to come back. )

Thank you to all of you who have supported us during our most recent Give Days! We couldn't do what we do without help from people like you! Help us break our own Give to Lincoln Day record today!

What is Wildlife Rescue Team, Inc. ?

---

Created in 1979, Wildlife Rescue Team, Inc. is a non-profit, all volunteer-based organization dedicated to the raising and rehabilitating of orphaned and injured wildlife from the state of Nebraska, with the goal being to release them back into the wild.

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.

If you have any questions or concerns about injured or orphaned wildlife, please call the Hotline at (402) 473-1951.
