The NWC works at the intersection of humans, native wild animals, and the environment with a focus on OneHealth.
Caledon, Ontario
The National Wildlife Centre works within the interconnection of humans, Canadian wildlife and the environment. We help native wildlife through our programs aimed at conservation goals to protect ecosystems, populations of wild animals, and the health of individual animals. The NWC aims to be a Centre of Excellence for conservation, wildlife clinical research, wildlife medicine, training, and education. We see ourselves as a platform for training future wildlife custodians, responders, conservation and wildlife biologists, rescue staff and veterinarians in native wildlife issues. We are a resource for wildlife emergency prevention, preparedness, and response planning in Canada and act as a hub of new discovery and dissemination of knowledge. We seek to be recognized for our leadership, creation and transfer of knowledge to others, highest quality and standards, and excellence in caring for native wildlife.
