Do you have an exotic pet that you are no longer able to care for?
Don't release it into the wild! Instead, join us at the Exotic Pet Surrender Event on May 2nd from 10 AM to 1 PM at Rhinelander District Library located at 106 N. Stevens St., Rhinelander, WI 54501.
J&R Aquatic Animal Rescue (JRAAR) and several area organizations will be accepting a variety of exotic pets, including:
• Fish
• Invertebrates
• Reptiles
• Pet birds
• Small mammals
• Plants
Please Note:
• Domestic pets (dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, pigs, chickens) are not accepted. Owners should contact local pet shelters or rescues for rehoming options.
• Wisconsin native animals taken from the wild will not be accepted. Please contact a licensed Wildlife Rehabilitator for these animals.
This event is a safe and responsible way to surrender exotic pets without the risks associated with releasing them into the wild. Releasing pets can be harmful to both the animals and the environment.
Highlights:
• Meet and learn about animal ambassadors!
• Capture memories at our photobooth with a rescued pet!
J&R Aquatic Animal Rescue has collaborated with regional rehoming partners, including Rhinelander District Library, and University of Wisconsin Sea Grant/Water Resources Institutes, to provide responsible alternatives for owners who can no longer care for their exotic pets.
