Mission

Wildlife Rescue & Rehabilitation (WRR) was founded in 1977 in San Antonio, Texas, by Lynn Cuny. WRR rescues, rehabilitates, and releases orphaned, injured, and displaced wildlife and provides sanctuary with dignity for non-releasable animals, both native and non-native. WRR is widely recognized as a superior rehabilitation and sanctuary facility. It provides a permanent home for a variety of mammals (e.g., wolves, bears, big cats, and primates) and non-indigenous birds and reptiles. Each year over 5,000 animals are brought to WRR, mostly from surrounding areas, but many from around the country; the majority of these were rehabilitated and released or given permanent sanctuary. WRR also provides advice and assistance in dealing with human-wildlife encounters in a non-lethal manner.
