Release!

A baby jackrabbit will receive TLC while at DVWR. Cornered by a dog, the baby was retrieved and arrived as a 5 day old leveret, the name for a baby jackrabbit. Even though they are called jackrabbits, the baby is a hare, differing from rabbits with larger size, longer ears and longer hind legs.

The orphaned pronghorn fawn that came in early summer was released in good habitat. .

Aside from the more familiar sparrows, ducks, owls, & hawks, a Eared Grebe is currently in residence.

This Swenson’s Hawk has an injured leg but making a remarkable recovery.
