Keeper of the Wild Wildlife Rescue is a nonprofit organization dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating and releasing orphaned and injured native South Carolina mammalian wildlife. The mission of Keeper of the Wild is to rescue and rehabilitate native local wildlife of South Carolina with the goal of returning them back to the wild. We believe every creature is part of nature's plan for the web of life; that each has a purpose to fulfill in that plan toward keeping this earth a balanced and healthy place where all life can live. We do not advocate keeping wild animals as pets. We encourage the public in the responsibility to work in cooperation with nature to protect and care for this earth which is the home for all life, and to enjoy as observers and appreciate the wildlife with which we share our environment. We strive to educate the public about the wildlife we save and the contributions of each to our own quality of life and the importance of coexisting with wildlife in our environments.We serve nine counties in lower South Carolina.
