Emergency Turtle Rescue: UPDATE
The Mercer County Wildlife Center is currently caring for more than 120 turtles from the recent Cranford dumping case, and that number continues to grow. These turtles are receiving evaluations, medical care, housing, and daily support from our rehabilitation team, all while hundreds of other injured and orphaned wild animals remain in our care.
This emergency response requires additional supplies, including storage bins, water pans, UV lighting, food, and other specialized equipment. Your donation to Wildlife Center Friends will help provide the resources these turtles need.
🐢 Help support this rescue effort:
While we are grateful for every offer of support, please do not bring produce, worms, or glass aquariums to the center. Donations, gift cards, and wish list purchases allow us to obtain exactly what is needed while avoiding waste.
Because this is an active investigation, we are limited in what we can share at this time. We will continue to provide updates as more information becomes available.
