Wildlife educates in Steinbach

Attendees at a Monday event hosted by the Prairie Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre had the opportunity to meet some unique animals and learn more about them. Education coordinator Julia Burcar said they average 25 to 30 presentations per month at senior residences, community groups, schools, preschools, daycares and private events. The centre, which relies on donors and grants, is currently home to 200 patients and has seen close to 600 pass through their doors so far this year. Currently located near St Adolphe, the organization has purchased land in East Selkirk which will be home to a brand-new education centre and animal hospital.
