🚨 Before You Move Wildlife...
If you discover a burrowing owl, gopher tortoise, active burrow, or nest,
Please Do Not Attempt to Move, Handle, or Disturb the Animal.
Many native wildlife species, including burrowing owls, gopher tortoises,
and their burrows, are protected under Florida law.
Contact CROW for professional wildlife rehabilitation.
