Be careful taking wildlife here. The volunteers are very quick to euthanize. I took a baby Robin that had his leg caught in a mousetrap. They killed it before I even had the paperwork filled out. Didn’t give it a chance - also didn’t give me a chance to take it elsewhere. I had explained to them that I had other options but they were the closest. They did a segment on New Day Cleveland that makes it out to be a great place, but I had the opposite experience. Will still take injured wildlife there but will definitely ask questions before I hand it over. They may have been a little quicker to euthanize this little bird because the center was closing in a few minutes and they wanted to get home?

I found a baby European starling, they were unfortunately unable to take him due to him being an invasive species, but Linda from stark parks has been there every step of the way and answered all of our questions thoroughly. Thanks Linda ♥️ great place, great people.

Beautiful Park! Took my nieces to see the animals and then walked the trails to the marina. Every single employee from the center to the marina to the library were so incredibly welcoming and nice! I will be going back again and again! This place is so awesome! Thank you for rescuing and rehabbing such wonderful creatures!

Stark Parks. Great walking trails. Many animals at the center. Some rehabbing, some permanent. The Barn Owl was hit by a car.

We found a deceased mother opossum that was probably hit by a car in front of our house. She had 9 babies with her. I called them and they were so prompt in accepting these babies and the drop off was so easy! I'm so appreciative that they were willing and able to take them. The facility looked beautiful as well. Thank you so much for taking these little babies in.
