WOWEE MISSION STATEMENT

We are dedicated to creating a greater awareness of our natural world through educational encounters
and programs.

We are a non-political organization  that focuses on education rather than legislation. We believe that teaching a child what an animal is, how and where it lives, and anything else we can explain about it will ultimately benefit a species' existence in our world  more than any law that was ever enacted to save it. If a person understands what something is, they  tend to appreciate it more as an interesting, essential, and valuable part of our world. 

 

W.O.W.E.E. is all about:

 

EDUCATION - we conduct school assemblies and outreach programs to teach people about the wonderful world of exotic animals. In doing so, we hope to foster a greater appreciation, understanding, and respect for our animal ambassadors. Our programs carry no religious or evolutionary messages, making them ideal for any type of school or organization.

 

REHABILITATION - we take in injured, orphaned, or abandoned animals and work closely with our local veterinarians to 'repair' them so they may be released back to their native habitat. We also place unwanted animals in new, caring homes.

 

PROPAGATION - we have a captive breeding program of several rare, threatened, and endangered species. We also have one of the few successful breeding colonies of binturongs in the United States. We have placed our babies with other organizations similar to ours all over the U.S. so others may learn about this incredible species.

"In the end, we will conserve only what we love, we will love only what we understand, and we will understand only what we are taught".
