Texas Wildlife Rehabilitation Coalition, Inc. is a private 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization operated by volunteer and part-time staff consisting of permitted rehabilitators, students, seniors, professionals, and animal lovers focusing on conservation, public education, and wildlife rehabilitation.
Our Shelter serves as an emergency room for native Texas wildlife brought to us by the public. TWRC, as we are known, is Houston's only urban wildlife emergency and rehabilitative care facility.

We have had over 65,000 injured, orphaned, or ill wildlife pass through the hands of our caring volunteers. We are proud to be able to provide this second chance for the wildlife in our neighborhoods.
TWRC provides:
A centrally located emergency facility for rescuers to bring injured, ill, or orphaned wildlife
A staffed facility to handle telephone inquiries regarding wildlife related issues
Initial examination of wildlife by trained, experienced staff to assess status and provide treatment in our on-site vet room
A veterinarian who oversees the training of vet room staff and provides support to Shelter rehabilitators
Coordinated placement of wildlife with appropriately skilled and permitted rehabilitators, who care for wildlife until it is released back into its native habitat.
