Rain, Rain Go Away…Finally Sunshine Again on Sanibel & Captiva Islands

Another wet week here on the islands,but the sun was shining today.

Below is an article from the “Island Sun” this week, followed by the activity posted in the Sanibel and Captiva Multiple Listing Service since last Friday.

Release Sites Needed For Native Wildlife

The “Island Sun” reports that CROW currently has a variety of native birds, Virginia opossums, raccoons and otters that are ready to return to the wild and establish their own territories. It takes weeks or months for the babies to mature enough to survive in the wild. With baby season in full swing, the clinic’s staff, students and volunteers are working around the clock to feed them.

Only a certain amount of animals can be released on one property. If anyone has private property with a lot of land and would be interested in having wild mammals, birds, or turtles released on it, call CROW at 472-3644. The clinic will review the set of guidelines with property owners to determine if their place is suitable.
