Nature’s Kingdom Conservation Rehabs Orphaned and Injured Wildlife To Release Back Into The Wild
Nature’s Kingdom Conservation in Herron, is dedicated to rehabilitating orphaned and injured wildlife and releasing them back into the wild. “We just did a release on two little bunnies. They were actually brought in at two different times. Both of their nests were disturbed by dogs and the other siblings killed. And so, then we got to rehabilitate them back. I just kept them like two extra weeks, and actually, they wouldn’t take a bottle because their eyes were already open. So I offered them dishes of milk and then, pellets and different greens and we just nursed them back to health and let them go” said Michelle Sobek, Owner of Nature’s Kingdom Conservation.
