N.O.P.A.W.S

NATIONAL ORGANIZATION to PROTECT
ALIEN
WILDLIFE SPECIES


THE TERM, �ALIEN WILDLIFE SPECIES� REFERS TO ANIMALS LIVING IN THE WILD SOMEWHERE OTHER THAN THEIR NATIVE COUNTRY.

AN ANIMAL FROM SOUTH AMERICA THAT FOUND ITSELF LIVING IN CONNECTICUT, WOULD BE AN "ALIEN WILDLIFE SPECIES".

YOU MIGHT WONDER, HOW AN ANIMAL FROM SOUTH AMERICA WOULD FIND ITSELF LIVING IN CONNECTICUT.

MOST OF THE REPTILES, BIRDS AND FISH, SOLD IN PET STORES IN THE UNITED STATES, ARE NATIVE TO OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD.
NOT ALL OF THEM MAKE MANAGABLE PETS FOR EVERY ONE.
THE ADULT SIZE OF SOME OF THE ANIMALS AVAILABLE MAKE THEM SUITABLE FOR ONLY MORE EXPERIENCED HOBBIEST.

CHECK OUT THE LIST OF DIFFICULT SPECIES LINK BELOW.

WHEN THESE ANIMALS BEGIN TO OUTGROW THEIR OWNERS CAPABILITYS, FINDING A NEW HOME CAN BE A CHALLENGE.
SOMETIMES, DIFFICULT SPECIES ARE RELEASED OR ESCAPE INTO THE WILD, WHERE THEY HAVE LITTLE CHANCE OF SURVIVAL. .

THAT IS WHAT WE ARE TRYING TO PREVENT, BY OFFERING AN ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM OF, WHAT TO DO WITH AN ANIMAL THAT YOU DON'T WANT, THAT YOU CAN'T EVEN GIVE AWAY.

WE ARE A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION DEDICATED TO WORKING WITH ANIMALS THAT COME UNDER THE BROAD HEADING OF �EXOTIC PET�.

WE TAKE THESE ANIMALS IN, AND USE THEM IN LIVE ANIMAL EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS, OR FIND THEM NEW HOMES.

OUR GOAL IS TO BUILD A PLACE WHERE WE CAN EXHIBIT THESE ANIMALS IN A NATURAL HABITAT.
