Healing Alabama’s Wildlife

Protecting Nature, One Animal at a Time

Quinn Wildlife Sanctuary is dedicated to giving injured, orphaned, and vulnerable native animals a second chance at life. We will work to heal, protect, and safely return these species to their natural habitats, while also educating the public about the vital role each creature plays in maintaining healthy ecosystems.

Our efforts will begin with raptors-majestic birds of prey like hawks, owls, and eagles-and will gradually expand to include all other birds, mammals, and reptiles. Every step we take is guided by compassion, expertise, and a commitment to conservation.

Knowledge for Wildlife Protection

Empowering People to Safeguard Nature

At Quinn Wildlife Sanctuary, we believe that knowledge is the first step toward lasting conservation. We want our sanctuary to be a connection hub for people to learn about our native wildlife and the ecosystems that they depend on. We will be offering engaging workshops, school outreach, and community programs to connect with and educate anyone who is interested in learning more. From exploring the role of raptors in ecosystems to learning about the importance of native plants, our programs will inspire people of all ages to take action in preserving biodiversity.
