Aloha from the Hawai‘i Wildlife Center!
Last year was the first time we tried a year-end video instead of squeezing in a long written update into limited postcard space or sending more paper in the mail. We received a lot of positive feedback about this video format so we’re doing it again this year.
Our usual disclaimer: these stats were put together in early December! That means that many of these numbers will increase before the year is done. We’re also still in the tail end of seabird fallout season with new patients coming in daily.
A LOT has been going on these past 12 months. Hope you enjoy the update!

Mahalo nui for your continued support!
Please consider making a year-end gift to the Hawai‘i Wildlife Center to support the hundreds of patients coming to our hospital annually. If you have already made your year-end gift, thank you so much! Thanks to our supportive ʻohana, we are able to continue to put our all into the individualized care of each native bird and bat that comes through our doors.
If you ever have any questions or want to chat more about any of our programs, you can reach Rae (HWC Development Director and longtime Hawai‘i bird enthusiast) at development@hawaiiwildlifecenter.org.
