About Us

Savage Hart is built upon strong ethical values to conserve and protect all wild animals and their natural habitat.

Wildlife Rehabilitation

Our team provides exceptional medical care to our patients under the guidance of licensed and certified wildlife rehabilitators. Our top priority is easing the suffering of our rehab patients and reintroducing them to their natural environment. We are committed to returning all animals to their natural habitat once they have fully recovered.

Our core objective is to raise awareness about responsible stewardship for native wildlife and their habitat. We take great pride in educating our community and neighboring areas about identifying orphaned or injured wild animals. We encourage coexisting strategies to minimize human intervention, which is always preferable when feasible.

Our facility is situated in Columbus, Georgia, and while we are not open to the public due to state regulations for health and safety reasons, we are available for assistance from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday - Friday. If you require help, please get in touch with our wildlife hotline at (888) 444-1810. If you require assistance after hours, please leave a message, and we will respond as soon as possible.
