Meet a Boulder Nonprofit: Greenwood Wildlife Rehabilitation Center

By Brian Clark

Greenwood Wildlife Rehabilitation Center

Living in Boulder, we’re no strangers to wildlife. From the deer and elk we find wandering through our neighborhoods year-round to the creatures and critters that we call pets, Boulder’s a bastion for wild friends.

Since 1982, Boulder’s Greenwood Wildlife Rehabilitation Center has been dedicated to the rehabilitation of wildlife brought to the Center so those creatures can be released back into the wild. The Center’s main goal is to successfully rehabilitate sick, injured, or orphaned wildlife so they can successfully head back home.

Doable, but a bit of a painful process. What if you just want to build a new home on a clean lot, especially given that Dakota Ridge is almost sold out?
