Wildlife In Need Of Rescue And Rehabilitation Inc (WINORR)
202 N Wyoming Avenue
Massapequa, NY 11758-1512
Phone: (516) 293-0587
Mission
WINORR is a non-profit, volunteer organization serving New York city, Nassau and Western Suffolk Counties.
We provide professional care for sick, injured, and orphaned wildlife.
Our trained volunteers receive no funds from federal, state, or country agencies and are totally dependent on donations, grants, and fundraisers to pay for our daily operation.
We rescue and care for wild animals received through the Department of Environmental Conservation, local police, animal hospitals, humane societies, animal control, as well as the general public. The state and federal governments license us to provide this service.
A handful of local vets generously donate their time and expertise to WINORR. Our area does not have a wildlife rehabilitation center. A small network of home-based rehabilitators fill this void.
In addition to rehabilition, we also provide information and education for the community.
Lastly, we offer sanctuary or find permanent placement for non-releasable wildlife that are unable to survive in the wild and otherwise would face euthanasia.
Note: Bobby and Cathy Horvath of WINORR are usually the go-to rehabbers for NYC raptors.

The Wild Bird Fund, Inc.
565 Columbus Avenue (between 87th and 88th)
New York, NY 10024
646-306-2862
https://www.wildbirdfund.org/
Hours: 8am to 8pm, 7 days a week. No appointment needed (but unable to pick up animals).
New York City is a major stopover of the East Coast migratory flyway. Over 355 bird species live in the Big Apple or take refuge here during migration. Many of these birds are injured by flying into buildings that have sprung up along their ancient migratory pathways, others by cat attacks, vehicles, and human interference. Yet New York is the only major city in the US that does not have a wildlife rehabilitation center.
The Wild Bird Fund is a state and federally licensed 501(c)(3) that rehabilitates more than 4,000 sick, injured or orphaned wild animals and releases them back to the wilds of New York City. All native and migratory birds are treated, from house sparrows and pigeons to comparative rarities such as Virginia rails and great horned owls. This critical work is accomplished through individual donations, a small staff and hundreds of volunteers.
