Wildlife rehab center needs help

RHINELANDER - The Wild Instincts Rehabilitation center in Rhinelander needs your help to care for wildlife. The center will host the Christmas For the Critters benefit Friday night at Pat's Tavern in Rhinelander. Nearly all the money that's used to care for the animals comes from your donations.

"For the most part we've gotten a couple of small grants over the years, but we have no funding whatsoever from city, state, or county," explained Director of Rehabilitation Mark Naniot. "Being a non-for-profit organization, all the money we make comes from fundraisers like this, memberships, and donations that we get. So we get no federal or government funding whatsoever, so everything we get is what we have to earn."
