WildKind

Will you trap and/or remove a wild animal that I am experiencing problems with?

WildKind does not remove, relocate or destroy “nuisance” wildlife. We will offer advice on how you can solve this conflict in a humane way and, hopefully, how to permanently solve the problem you are experiencing. Trapping and removing wildlife is not an effective solution. When you trap an animal with the intent of removing it from your property, often times, another animal will simply come and take its place. The only way to successfully remove nuisance wildlife from your property is to eliminate the animal’s source of food or shelter by capping chimneys, covering trash cans, cleaning BBQs, fencing off the garden, etc.

Do you take raptors?

Larimer Humane Society is not licensed to care for raptors. Any raptors we receive are transferred to the Rocky Mountain Raptor Program in Fort Collins.

I brought you an animal, what are you going to do with it?

Our goal as a licensed wildlife rehabilitation facility is to give injured, ill and orphaned wildlife a second chance at survival. Once the animals are healthy enough or old enough to survive on their own, they are released back into the wild where they belong.

I brought you an animal, can I come visit it?

As a general rule we do not allow visits into our WildKind department. To ensure an animal’s successful rehabilitation, we limit, as much as possible, the animal’s exposure to people; in essence, we try and keep the wildlife “wild.” Captive environments like a wildlife rehabilitation facility can be a very stressful for wild animals. In an attempt to minimize the amount of stress on the animals, we limit the people who come into WildKind to staff and volunteers only.

If the animal I brought in is going to be euthanized, can I have it back?

Unless you have a license/permit to possess the particular species in question, it is illegal and unethical for Larimer Humane Society to return the animal to the finder.
