The Key West Wildlife Center is located inside the seven acre Indigenous Park at 1801 White Street in Key West Florida. The nature trail which includes a freshwater pond and two aviaries is great spot for observing migratory birds in both the fall and spring. The Key West Wildlife Center operates a clinic on the property that enables us to provide treatment to injured and sick wildlife.
The Mission of The Key West Wildlife Center is to "Ensure the future of our diverse native wildlife by providing timely rescues and quality rehabilitation with the hope of release back to the wild." The goal of wildlife rehabilitation is to provide professional care to sick, injured, and orphaned wild animals so ultimately they can be returned to their natural habitat.
