This app has saved so many animals

I have used this app many times and have recommended it to everyone who is looking for help for wildlife in distress. I am so thankful for the info on this amazing app!!

Best of its kind

By far the best in the US. Sadly, there’s none like it anywhere else in the world. Need to expand this internationally.

Great help with an injured bird

A small, injured woodpecker was hopping around the ivy emitting plaintive cries. It couldn't fly and I called the bird hotline on AnimalHelpNow and was given advice on how to capture it and keep it safe overnight. I will be delivering it to the rescue place first thing this morning and am very grateful of this app.

Amazing tool

This app has helped me save over 20 wild animals by connecting me directly with support when I find them wounded or hurt. It is AMAZING.

Amazing AND free!

The developers of this app truly have a passion for empowering others to rescue wildlife. I have used this app countless times and I am now referring it to someone who found an unweaned baby bunny. Thank you!
