As a rescue center, our first concern is the animals in our care. We do NOT allow any handling or touching of any wildlife. Being touched by the public can be stressful for the animal and, in most cases, dangerous for the person. This rule is fundamental because the animals under our care are all rescued from various serious situations. At TRR, we want to minimize human contact while providing each animal with the best environment possible. This is why only trained staff can touch or handle animals at TRR. So while we do not allow you to hold wildlife, we promise your experience will be unique, personal, and educational. We do not allow pets on the property.
