The Emerald Coast Wildlife Refuge provides wildlife rescue, rehab and environmental outreach to five counties in Northwest Florida. The Refuge rescues thousands of animals a year working closely with local law enforcement, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission and the US Fish and Wildlife Service to protect, treat and release native species. The Refuge also is the lead response team for the Federal Marine Mammal Stranding Network assisting with all marine mammal strandings from mid-Walton County to the Alabama state line. Refuge staff is on duty 24 hours a day, seven days a week, providing an invaluable service to one of the most biologically diverse areas of North America. Established in 1994, the Refuge was officially incorporated as a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. The Refuge is funded through private contributions, memberships, fundraising events, business partners and grants to support our mission.
