Urban Wildlife Care, located in Grimsby, Ontario and run by Cara Contardi is dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation, and release of our native wildlife.
Cara Contardi is an authorized Wildlife Custodian with the Ministry

If you suspect that an animal needs rescuing, please contact me, or a rehabilitator, first before attempting to
move the animal(s). To find a rehabilitator in your area, visit www.owren-online.org or call your local office of the Ministry
