Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA (formerly Wildlife Center of Silicon Valley)

I dropped off an opossum that limped into my backyard with a trap on one of its limbs. I'm hoping they can save it! 🙏🏻 The entrance is a dirt road and parking is along the creek and in front of the building. Very friendly staff and helpful. I know sometimes they have to euthanize the animal.

I brought a baby bird -dove here last spring. Which I got after chasing a cat, who carried it in his moth then dropped it. I couldn't locate the parents, bird seems to be (visually) ok, but I called Wildlife Center and I was on my way just in few minuts after brief talk with the team member. Due to Covid, I couldnt entry the facility, but was greeted after ringing the bell. The personelle is very passionate, helpful and friendly. I got an update in a few days - my baby is doing well :). Then in 4 weeks I got a card- my dove survived, was nurtured to be healthy bird and was released in the nearby park!!!

Honestly, I don't know if I did the right thing bringing in a slightly injured crow that hours before was hobbling around, but happily drinking water and munching on seeds. The foot look damaged and the wing might have been affected as well. Brought it in to the Wildlife Center and the one staff member that I spoke with was kind and friendly. He brought the caged crow in while I waited to get my cage back. 3 minutes later, he came out and said the vet informed him that the crow had Avian Pox that was highly contagious. I asked if it was curable and could the crow be rehabilitated. He said no and that its condition would continue to worsen and it was in pain. (that bird had been at my next door neighbor's home eating and drinking happily before it came over to our house.) Part of me

Found an injured duck from one of the apartment ponds in our neighborhood. The staff took one look, determined that it's a "hybrid" (looked like a mallard mix) and therefore domestic... a PET. They refused to take him and sent us somewhere else. So I guess ducks that live in city ponds and parks are not considered wildlife for whatever reason. What world do we live in where people refuse to help an injured animal that is clearly not someone's pet? Unfortunately, the duck will now need to be euthanized due to the injuries, waiting, and stress from driving around trying to find a place to care for him. These people should be ashamed of themselves. They could have saved him and possibly re-released him to the ponds he came from. Poor little ducky. R.I.P.

This place put down the squirrel I brought them because of an “overbite”. Not a day goes by I don’t regret bringing this precious little guy I wanted to save and give a full life too. They suppressed this info from me for months as well. Use with great caution. Its just a factory.
