Help us look after sick, injured and orphaned wildlife.
Welcome to Cuan Wildlife Rescue
Shropshire’s only wildlife rescue centre
We rescue, care for and rehabilitate sick, injured and orphaned wild animals and birds. Then we release them back into the wild.
Each year we admit and treat around 6,000 creatures and need to raise £540,000 for day-to-day running costs. Please help us by donating time, money or items from our wishlist.
If you’ve seen an injured wild animal or bird, call us for advice on 01952 728070 or visit our contact page.

Cuan Wildlife Rescue
Cuan Wildlife is a wildlife rescue centre where we take in sick, injured or orphaned wild animals and birds, with the aim of nursing them back to health. We regularly admit over 6,000 animals & birds in one year.
Once fully recovered, great emphasis is placed on returning them to the wild - in most cases, this means back to the area from where they came, where they may have a mate waiting, or where, at least, they will be familiar with their territory or hunting ground.
Cuan Wildlife rescue is a registered Charity which is dependant on donations from the public and businesses.
PIGEON SQUABS 🩶
We have many pigeon and dove squabs in our care currently, feral pigeons, wood pigeons, and collared doves! 🕊️
Did you know, pigeons bob their heads when they walk to help keep their vision stable. Their funny little head bobs help them see their surroundings much more clearly, which is important when they’re constantly looking for food and watching out for danger! 👀

MANGY FOX! 🧡🦊
This little fox came into us very weak and covered in mange. Mange is caused by tiny mites that burrow into the skin, leading to intense itching, hair loss, sores and thick, crusty skin. If mange becomes severe and is left untreated, constant scratching can cause open wounds and secondary bacterial infections. A badly affected fox can become weak, lose weight and struggle to regulate its body temperature. In very severe cases, infection, exhaustion, starvation and exposure can become life-threatening.
Luckily this one was caught just in time. He was given a couple different treatments and after a few weeks in care he had put on weight, he was much stronger, and his hair was growing back thick and fast! He was later returned back to the wild with the help from The Fox Rescuers!

Would you like to hear some incredible wildlife rescue stories on a relaxing Sunday afternoon, in the beautiful setting of @Eaton Manor? Come along and join us at our Wildlife Walk & Talk event, where you can walk/wander around the picturesque Poetry Trail at Eaton Manor Country Estate, admiring the countryside and reading poems as you go around all about wildlife and nature - walk as little or as much as your like! If you prefer, you can take part in garden games set up on the lawn area. After the walk (which can take up to an hour - your choice), we will gather indoors to hear some wonderful wildlife rescue stories that our Founder, Megan, has been involved with over the years. We will be serving teas/coffees and have PLENTY of cake! Tickets are £20 per person to include the walk, talk, and refreshments. There will be plenty of time for questions and chatting afterwards! Click on the link below for full details and how to book - we are sure this is going to be a VERY popular event! Thank you to Eaton Manor for kindly donating the venue for this event.

NICE AND FULL! 🧡
This little goldfinch fledgling had just been fed! Did you know, many species of birds have an expandable pouch in their oesophagus called the ingluvies, or more commonly know as a “crop”. This is where birds can temporarily store food quickly in large amounts and then retreat to a safer place to digest their meal. You can see on the picture below the goldfinch’s crop is full as he had just been hand fed and stored the food in it! 🪱
