Volunteer with the DFW Wildlife Coalition

If you are passionate about native wildlife, conservation, or animals, volunteering for the DFW Wildlife Coalition is the perfect opportunity to help your local animals and community!

While we are based in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, the DFW Wildlife Hotline receives calls from all over the U.S. Some calls are from homeowners with wildlife conflict resolution needs, and others are from children who find us on the internet and are frantic to find a wildlife rehabilitator to help them save an injured or abandoned animal. To save the life of one animal is well worth the time spent on the hotline. Imagine being the person responsible for saving the life of a red-tailed hawk, a fawn, a baby owl or an infant opossum! There is no way to measure the personal gratification that you will experience as a DFW Wildlife Coalition volunteer.
