Greenwood is the largest wildlife rehabilitation facility along the Front Range. Each year, Greenwood cares for thousands of animals representing 200 different wildlife species. Our patients include songbirds, waterfowl/shorebirds and small mammals.

Greenwood does not have the appropriate permits to care for bats, skunks, rattlesnakes, mammals larger than coyotes, or birds of prey. We can, however, advise the public on situations with these animals and provide phone numbers for other rehabilitators in Colorado that do treat these animals.
