Baby in the house.

Many baby Desert Cottontails are brought to DVWR in the spring for various reasons. Their round tails are dark on top and white underneath resembling a cotton ball and their large ears radiate body heat, cooling them during the hot summer months.

The young Pronghorn Antelope is growing fast.  

A Great Horned Owl baby is at DVWR along with some very young jackrabbits. All are doing well.  

Evelyn assessed just a short stay at DVWR for this young hawk. Possibly stunned from a window strike, proper nutrition will boost the hawk’s strength and flying skills in preparation for release.
