Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre

We have been taking care of the birds since our inception because we would encounter all the time injured, confiscated or smuggled individuals. During the first few years, the rehabilitation location was in the courtyard of the organisation’s office, where initially we had improvised cages and only much later professional aviaries. The medical treatment was provided in the first years by several veterinarians in Tirgu-Mureș. Then, thanks to Dr Borka Levente’s enthusiasm, a veterinary association has been assembled – Vets4Wild, which today represents the very foundation of the Milvus rehabilitation centre. The centre has been developed by human and financial resources ensured by Milvus Group and Vets4Wild, but also by projects and donations. Currently, the rehabilitation centre includes two facilities: in Tirgu Mure~ and Sansimion. In the Tirgu-Mureș facility, injured animals receive daily care and treatment. After they do not require further medical treatment, the birds are transferred to Sansimion, where before their release, they can recover by building muscle and strength in larger aviaries.

Our centre receives not only birds but mammals and reptiles, too. Thanks to the national wildlife rescue network, on average, one “patient” arrives every second day in one of our 20 aviaries. In addition to hundreds of recommendations given over the phone, we have more than 150 wild animals in our centre every year. Apart from the ever-expanding network, we also have an emergency telephone number available 24/7 to increase the recovery chances of injured animals.

We get calls on a daily basis – sometimes up to a few dozen – from various parts of the country for advice, information or guidance on how to save a wild animal. The operation of the centre is carried out voluntarily, as a joint effort of the two organisations.

In addition to our ever-expanding network, we also have an emergency phone number – 0722533816 – which greatly increases the chances of recovery for injured animals. Monday to Friday 8:00-18:00, Saturday-Sunday 10:00-15:00. Outside the Centre’s working hours, please send us a message + photo on WhatsApp (same number).
