Who We Are
Report
Southwest Wildlife Conservation Center (SWCC) rescues native wild animals that have lost their homes to development, or are found injured, orphaned, or abandoned. When possible, the animals in our care are rehabilitated and released - healthy and wild - back where they belong. Those animals that could not survive in the wild can live out their lives at our accredited sanctuary.
Our Story
Report
In the early 1990's, the seed was planted for what would become one of the leading wildlife sanctuaries and rehab facilities in the southwestern United States. Our story begins with Linda Searles - a woman with a passion for all living things and a life-changing encounter with an orphaned coyote pup.
What We Do
Report
Whenever wild animals have lost their homes to development, or are found injured or abandoned, SWCC is ready to respond. We provide our native wildlife with a safe place to recover and grow; a place where their wildness is nurtured and encouraged. Our doors are always open for them. Our trained staff and volunteers are on call 24/7 to respond to any wild mammal emergency.
