Michele N.

As a veterinary tech student, Michele volunteered at the MacBride Raptor Center and was lucky enough to work there after graduation. She has always worked with small animals in clinics and surgical centers for dogs and cats but she knew that she wanted to work with raptors. When MacBride cut their rehab program, Michele started volunteering for the Raptor Advocacy Rehab & Education Group. She cares for raptors, birds, songbirds and waterfowl, as many 200 each year. Raptors have remained especially close to Michele's heart. They need someone to care for them, understand their important role in nature, and get them back to the wild where they belong.
