Our mission is to rescue and rehabilitate orphaned or injured wildlife, and release them back to their native habitat.

My name is Marybeth Rood and I am a permitted wildlife rehabilitator in the state of Tennessee. I have over 20 years of experience dealing with all kinds of wildlife, but I specialize in foxes, raccoons, beavers, groundhogs, and skunks.

Although I am permitted by the state, no funding for my work is provided. Wildlife rehabbers are volunteers, and many of us also have “real” jobs to support our calling to conserve and protect wildlife. Your donations will help support this effort by providing funds for medicine, formula, enclosures and maintenance. All donations are used for animal care and support, rather than salaries or administration fees. I work for the animals, and my only rewards are seeing them run free on release day, and knowing that I gave them a fighting chance at survival.

Mountain Tails Wildlife Rehab is a non-profit organization under IRS 501 (c)(3). Your donations are tax deductible!

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sounds like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest.
