About Desert Wildlife Center

The Friends of the Palm Springs Animal Shelter is Spreading Its Wings!

The Coachella Valley is not just a special place for people—it is an extraordinary place for wildlife. The region is home to a wide range of bird, reptile, and mammal species, many of them endemic, and many of them threatened or endangered. Risks to the health and safety of our local wildlife have increased over the years, as we continue to convert acres upon acres of wildlands to residential and commercial developments. Wildlife is forced into ever smaller and smaller segmented spaces, often venturing into our backyards and community parks, along our roadsides and parking lots, sharing the places where we live, work, learn and play. They are forced to navigate more and more human-made hazards, sometimes failing. That is where we—and you—come in.

The Friends of the Palm Springs Animal Shelter is thrilled to announce the opening of the Desert Wildlife Center (DWC). The DWC will serve as a safe refuge for sick, injured, and orphaned wildlife needing medical treatment and rehabilitation. Slated to open later this year at the site of the former wild bird center in Indio, DWC will initially serve wild birds, and with plans to accept both reptiles and mammals in the future. In addition to rescue, treatment, care, and rehabilitation services, DWC will offer humane education to community members of all ages, creating a solid grassroots network of wildlife advocates dedicated to cultivating and sustaining peaceful coexistence between humans and wildlife.
