Bill Hicks Foundation For Wildlife

About

The Bill Hicks Foundation is a not-for-profit Texas Corporation. We are a network of volunteers - everyday people, animal lovers, and specialists -- who dedicate much of our time to helping wildlife. Mammals and marsupials are our specialty. As small mammal specialists we do not personally rehabilitate birds, but we do network with those who do. However, if you are in the Austin area and need help with an orphaned, sick, or injured bird, please contact the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department at 512-389-4800, or visit their Web site at www.tpwd.state.tx.us for a list of rehabilitators of birds and other species. As our urban areas continue to grow and encroach on wildlife habitat, so too does the number of animals in need of our care. We are currently looking for more volunteers. Please contact us if you are interested in helping us rescue and rehabilitate Central Texas wildlife. Our philosophy is that wild animals were here first, and the least we can do, for invading and destroying their natural habitat, is to give a little something back by helping those we can. Often, this "little something" means volunteers putting in many selfless hours; giving up nights, weekends, and any pretense at a "normal" life; and spending their own money on medical expenses, supplies and food. Donations help, but they just don't put a dent into the expenses incurred.
