This app was recommended to me by a park ranger in the middle of the Appalachian mountains. She was a birds of prey rehabilitator and worked closely with the state in tending to its raptor program . What an incredible resource for both the public and also Wildlife rehabilitators across the United States. As a former Fish And Wildlife rehabilitator myself, and also a animal medical emergency responder at various animal veterinary centers and shelters, this app has come in handy so many times and I forever grateful that it is available to both the public and to people like myself. I constantly recommend it to people both in my field and also clients I work with in the animal medical field. When I’m on the road sometimes I need information quickly and securely, information I can trust. This app has that. There have been many times where I found injured wildlife and injured domestic animals, and this app has led me to the correct animal hospitals and rehabilitators near me, saving so many animals in the process. Whoever created this app is an angel. Thank you!

I’ll let my Facebook post speak for itself:Here's a picture of the bird I just rescued from the side of the road. He was on his back with his wings spread out, and I almost didn't know it was a bird, let alone anything alive. (It was kind of an edge-on view I had from my car.) I pulled into a nearby parking lot only a minute or two from home and gently flipped him over with my shoe. He then started crawling away (slowly, since he was injured).Thanks to an app I had on my phone (Animal Help Now!), I was able to to enter what kind of animal it was and find the nearest person or place that could take care of him. I had to drive about six or seven miles to a house, but the lady there was able to take him. I don't know how long he had been there, but it was probably good timing just because of the rain that started almost as soon as we were in the car. Being upside-down, the bird might have gotten water into his beak or nostrils, etc., and who knows what that might have done to him.He was so good, though. Although he resisted me putting my soft coat around him to carry him (since I had no box or anything else I could use), once I was carrying him to the car and during the long, rush-hour trip to the house he was so calm and didn't try to move. (I talked softly to him, etc., just as I do when I'm taking my cat somewhere.) He struggled a little when I had to bring him back out of the car and to the lady, but he may have been scared or sensitive because of his injury. I hadn't known what it was, but the lady spotted a little blood and an obviously sore spot. She said he was probably hit by a car, but if nothing was "broke" she would be able to help him. Hopefully!Thanks, Animal Help Now!

As a permitted rehabber listed on this site, I absolutely love it! Time is of the essence with injured and orphaned wildlife. This site makes it so easy to find a rehabber close to you. I’ve also been able to find closer help for some caring folks that have contacted me from not so close but were willing to drive the animal to me. They were elated to not have to drive so far. Thank you Dave, for creating this site to help us help wildlife!

The Animal Help Now app is the answer to emergency help for wildlife! I found the app to be intuitive and nicely laid out. After exploring a bit further, I could tell that a lot of love and planning went into the development. I love the feature allowing you to search for help by animal type. Download the app today so you'll be ready the next time you need help for wildlife!
