Mission

To protect, conserve and aid the the recovery of Hawaii's native wildlife through hands-on treatment, research, training, science education and cultural programs

What We Do

The Hawai‘i Wildlife Center (HWC) is a nonprofit state-wide native wildlife response organization that specializes in the conservation of native birds and the Hawaiian hoary bat. The HWC is the first organization of its kind exclusively for native Hawaiian wildlife and is the only organization in Hawai‘i that provides professional wildlife response services exceeding national standards, including state-of-the-art care and rehabilitation to all species of native birds and bats from throughout the Hawaiian Islands. The HWC also provides wildlife rescue and response training throughout the Pacific region as well as public education, outreach and community service programs to students and visitors.
