🌀🦊 HURRICANE SEASON IS HERE — LET’S PROTECT FLORIDA’S WILDLIFE TOGETHER! 🦝🐿️

As hurricane season begins, our thoughts often turn to preparing our homes and families—but Florida’s wildlife face the storm too.

Every year, hurricanes 🌀 and tropical storms leave behind injured, orphaned, and displaced wildlife in need of help. Squirrels 🐿️ are blown from nests, baby birds 🐦 are separated from their parents, foxes 🦊 and raccoons 🦝 or lose den sites, and countless other wildlife struggle to survive the aftermath.

Here are a few important reminders:

✅ Before the storm
• Secure outdoor furniture and debris that could destroy nests or shelters.
• Do not attempt to relocate wildlife before a storm.
• Save the contact information for What the Fox Wildlife Rescue or your other local wildlife rehabilitator. You can find the list for Florida herehttps://myfwc.com/media/i0efjuil/licensedwildliferehabilitatorsbyregion.pdf

✅ During the storm
• Stay safe indoors.
• Wildlife may seek shelter in unusual places—garages, sheds, porches, and outbuildings.
• Give them space and allow them to ride out the storm whenever possible.

✅ After the storm
• Be on the lookout for injured, orphaned, or displaced wildlife.
• If you find an animal that appears to need help, keep pets and people away.
• If safe to do so, place the animal in a secure, ventilated container lined with a soft towel.
• Do not offer food or water.
• Contact What the Fox Wildlife Rescue or another licensed wildlife rehabilitator for guidance.

🦊📚 WE’RE IN THE CHRONICLE! 📚🦝

We are so excited to share that the Citrus County Chronicle featured What The Fox Wildlife Rescue and our brand-new Wildlife Rescue Coloring & Activities Book for Kids! ❤️

This special project was created to help children learn about:
🐿️ Wildlife rehabilitation
🦉 Conservation and coexistence
🦝 Native Florida wildlife
💚 Compassion for animals and the environment

The interactive book combines fun coloring pages, activities, and wildlife-themed learning opportunities designed to inspire the next generation of wildlife advocates. From mazes and puzzles to educational content about helping injured and orphaned wildlife, this book was made with love to make learning fun and meaningful for kids of all ages.

A huge thank you goes out to our amazing volunteer Jocelyn for the hard work and creativity that helped bring this project to life, and to the Citrus County Chronicle for highlighting our mission and educational outreach efforts.

At What The Fox Wildlife Rescue, education is one of the most important tools we have to create a future where people and wildlife can coexist safely. Every child we teach today becomes part of protecting wildlife tomorrow. 🦊🌎

As always, What The Fox Wildlife Rescue operates entirely on donations and community support. Please help us spread the love ❤️ Every like, comment and share, donation, helps support the wildlife in our care! Please help us continue rescuing, rehabilitating, and educating throughout our community.

Thank you for believing in our mission and helping us make a difference for Native Florida wildlife every single day. 💚
