Unwanted Exotic Pets
The exotic pet trade is booming! Auctions make many animals available to purchase and rest assured, they do not care if you have experience or good intentions with that species.
Some animals are bred and sold locally with even less concern for the animal's wellbeing or owner experience. These animals fall into hands that are not prepared to spend thousands of dollars for fencing, food, and medical care. These unsuspecting owners have little to no experience in wildlife. Situations such as these are dangerous, not just for the animals but also the public! While most situations involving exotic pet ownership goes awry, some people actually step up to the plate after seeing an animal in need. Many contact us to help them with those animals and for that, we are grateful!
Here are several of those animals that call Wolf Run, home!
Freya is a red fox that was a pet then abandoned by her owners at Wolf Run. She is a feisty girl who enjoys human companionship but really enjoys her best friend, Roski.
Say hello to Bob. Bob is a bobcat that was purchased and kept as a pet until he became dangerous and was owner surrendered to Wolf Run. Bob was three years of age when he came to WRWR and is about to celebrate his 19th birthday!
PJ has been with Wolf Run for many years. He was being kept in a garage but was spared a life of loneliness by a volunteer who knew of his plight. He came to Wolf Run where he will live his best life! These talking birds are a desired pet until their owners realize how destructive and loud that are. Parrots are so intelligent and cannot be left in a wire cage alone without attention. It's unfair and abusive.
