Elise G.

Growing up, Elise's family never really had any pets, but she would go out and catch earthworms, toads, and lightning bugs in the summer. Her family was always outdoors doing various activities; hiking, boating, fishing, so it didn't surprise them when Elise decided to take care of wild animals. She was looking for a place to get some animal care experience when a friend recommended applying at a rehab facility. At the time Elise really didn't even know what wildlife rehab was but she decided to give it a try. She learned so much in a short amount of time, ended up really loving it, and now cares for squirrels, rabbits, opossums and skunks. It has become Elise's passion to support the natural environment and all the animals that live in it.
