Welcome to Aspen Valley Wildlife Sanctuary

Our sanctuary’s values are based on the animals best interests, and through our commitment to providing aid with integrity, excellence, dedication, commitment, individualized care, respect, and education.

We are a registered charity (charitable registration number: 118791193RR0001). We do not receive any government funding and our work is sustained through the generosity of the public.

​Cailan's Adventures in Support of Wildlife

Cailan is a young girl who lives in the heart of Muskoka.
 She has been and continues to be an avid fundraiser for Aspen Valley and has set a personal goal to raise

$100,000 

In August of 2020, she kayaked 120km and portaged roughly 21 waterfalls and chutes from Huntsville to Arnold's Bay.  This accomplishment successfully raised $10,350.  This is enough to start the construction of a new Deer House which will be designed to rehabilitate orphaned and injured fawns.  Having a dedicated facility specifically for the care of these high stress animals has been on our wish list for sometime.

Our vision is to be a valued provider of wildlife rehabilitation, care, and related public education

Mandate
  • To rescue and rehabilitate injured and orphaned native wildlife
  • To provide quality care that avoids habituation to humans and respects each animal’s need for a safe, healthy, species-appropriate environment while in captivity
  • To release animals into the wild in a condition that gives them the best possible chance for survival
  • To provide a permanent home for native species unable to survive in the wild due to human interference
  • To educate the public about issues surrounding wildlife and wildlife interactions with humans
  • To work within the established rules and regulations set out by the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources & Forestry

​Mission
To care for injured and orphaned wildlife and, once rehabilitated, return them to their natural environment. For animals requiring permanent care, to provide an environment that satisfies their biological and behavioural needs.
