Wild ARC - the Wild Animal Rehabilitation Centre is operated by the BC Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. As the only wildlife rehabilitation centre on southern Vancouver Island, Wild ARC treats over 1,700 wild animals annually from throughout the region.

Wild ARC's mission is to provide humane care to injured, orphaned, sick and distressed wildlife based on established rehabilitation standards and the animal's natural history. Each patient is treated individually and assessed for eventual release back into the wild. Wild ARC also aims to educate the public about wildlife, animal welfare, and co-existing with nature, as over 80% of the wild animals treated at Wild ARC are impacted by human activity.

Our efforts are not funded by any government agency and we appreciate your concern and support in caring for wild animals in distress. Throughout the website you will find information on how you can help these wild animals and learn more about wildlife and the specialized field of rehabilitation.
