About Program
The Rescue Center is dedicated to protect and help endangered Costa Rican wildlife indigenous to our beautiful country. First and foremost, our goal is to ensure the welfare of injured animals and help them recover from their physical and psychological wounds.
We staff a team of experienced veterinarians who work at our on-site hospital in addition to the thousands of volunteers from around the world who have helped us over the past 10+ years.
We rescue, rehabilitate, and when possible release the animals back to their natural habitat. We are privately owned and receive no government helps financially. The passion, dedication of our staff, and generosity of our volunteers, interns, and donors make everything possible.
Register and Sign-Up now to work hands-on with many different animals including but not limited to monkeys, sloths, ocelots, coyotes, kinkajou, coati, raccoons, possum, parrots, macaws, and other exotic birds.
