Rescuing, rehabilitating, and releasing wildlife since 1991
Our mission is to support and advocate for wildlife through rehabilitation, education, collaboration and community engagement, in order to promote sustainable and healthy ecosystems in Napa County for present and future generations.
Seven new owls are currently receiving care at Napa Wildlife Rescue as they recover, build strength, and prepare for their return to the wild.
Providing the nutrition and daily care they need costs approximately $30 per day. With an anticipated release in mid-October, we have approximately 40 days of care ahead of us. We're inviting our community to help “buy a lunch” with a $30 donation.
$30 provides a full day of care and nutrition for this splendid group of seven!
Our goal is to raise 40 gifts of $30 to help support the ongoing care of these seven owls during their rehabilitation. And there is a special opportunity for our supporters to be part of their journey home. For every $30 donation, your name will be entered into a raffle for the opportunity to attend the owls' release. Three supporters will be selected to join Napa Wildlife Rescue when these remarkable birds are ready to return to the wild.
Your gift does more than provide a meal. It helps give these owls the time, nourishment, and care they need to become strong enough to live independently once again.
40 meals. 7 owls. One journey back to the wild!
Help us provide a "lunch" today and be part of their journey home.
Time Sensitive Request!
Help provide 40 days of care for seven owls preparing to return to the wild.
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza is in Napa County
Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) was detected in California in July 2022. This virus is highly contagious and fatal to birds, affecting over 58 million birds in the US. As wildlife advocates, we can educate ourselves and others about best practices in biosecurity to slow the spread of HPAI.
Follow the link to learn more about HPAI, who it affects, and Napa Wildlife Rescue’s response.
Attention rural & agricultural landowners:
American Kestrels need your help!
For reasons not completely understood, kestrel populations have been steadily declining in many areas of North America. In an effort to better understand this unfortunate trend, the University of California Cooperative Extension (UCCE) has announced the Napa-Solano Kestrel Nest Box Initiative.
Rural & agricultural landowners & property managers can help by installing kestrel boxes, or adding your existing kestrel box to a network of boxes to be monitored long term.

“(...) Thank you for the support you provided when we found an injured barn owl in our yard. The owl had been attacked by another bird and was injured.
NWR was so quick in responding to our call and helping the owl. My family was so excited to get an update on the owl and know it was being treated for its injury.
(...) We wanted to send a personal thank you to the NWR for all that you are doing for our community. Thank you!”
