Whether their patient is a hurt hummingbird, a sick snapping turtle, or an orphaned owl, the team of veterinarians, vet techs, and animal care specialists is here to help. In fact, the New England Wildlife Centers have cared for over 225 species of animals! &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another important thing our friends at the New England Wildlife Centers do is educate the public about wildlife and the environment. They believe that by encouraging people to connect with the natural world, they\u2019re more likely to respect it and protect it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We love all the great work you\u2019re doing, New England Wildlife Centers, and we\u2019re pleased to call you honorary Earth Rangers!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newildlife.org\/\" title=\"https:\/\/www.newildlife.org\/\">https:\/\/www.newildlife.org\/<\/a> to learn more<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This turtle is in trouble.
