Mark Mitchell the director of the Wildlife Hospital of Louisiana said. "We work with state and federal agents who have injured animals that they potentially bring to us, but the majority of the animals that they bring to us are from good Samaritans, Louisiana citizens,” The school medically treats and cares for several different species and say they see approximately 20,000 case each year. They offer primary care along with specialty services. They have treatments for a variety of illnesses and injuries and they are open 24/7, 365 days a year.
