All ages arrive at DVWR

This goose & her goslings were rescued by Evelyn and Mike from atop a two story building. The roof had a wall surrounding it prohibiting the goose from leading her babies to the water, not to mention the long drop to the ground! No small task for the rescuers to climb a ladder, corral the…

After arriving quite famished from migration and unable to fly, the Egret regained good health under Evelyn’s specialized care and was then released to a beneficial habitat.  

Evelyn placed a splint on the leg of this young jackrabbit to facilitate the healing process.  Prognosis is excellent.

The young Pronghorn Antelope is growing fast.  

The many young Great Horned Owls that are receiving care at Dayton Valley Wildlife Reststop are growing fast.  Great Horned Owls have a sturdy digestive system. They sometimes digest their prey whole and later regurgitate pellets that contain unwanted parts.

An orphaned Pronghorn Antelope was one of the recent arrivals at Dayton Valley Wildlife Reststop .  She is now a week old.  According to Nevada Department of Wildlife website, pronghorns at this age could already outrun a human!!   Evelyn keeps a close watch on her while feeding and all doors are double checked closed!!
