    Found a beautiful, but unfortunately paralyzed adult squirrel today. The poor thing could barely…read moremove. I knew that torrential rains were predicted to start falling soon, and I just couldn't feel okay leaving it there to slowly drown, so I called Animal Control, who couldn't do anything, but recommended that I call Sweet Binks Rescue. I left a message, and about ten minutes later they called me back and agreed to take the squirrel if I could get it to them in Foster. They gave me directions on how to capture and transport the animal easily and safely. About an hour later I was at there location and handing the poor thing over to them. The squirrel will most likely have to be euthanized if it turns out that it is permanently paralyzed, but at least it won't be dying a slow, cold, and wet death. Thank you so much for the work you do - I am very relieved and grateful that there is an organization that is able and willing to provide services for injured wildlife in my area.

    I am giving this rescue one star which I do think it's a generous one star. After hearing or rather…read moreseeing good things about this rescue on TV, I reached out by email for help. This was the first time in my life I have contacted anyone regarding help for an animal. What I got in return was an email shaming me for Apparently being a bad and lazy person. I will absolutely never reach out to this organization again and it's pretty clear to me that they only get involved when there's news coverage that gives them positive press. The person that responded to me was a very ugly person and very unkind.

    I'm a huge fan of zoos and aquariums, but they tend to create the impression that you need to visit…read morethe Serengeti or the Galapagos to see some amazing animals. The Audubon Society proves that that just isn't true--there is plenty of incredible wildlife right here in Rhode Island! It costs $6 to go through the exhibit inside the education center, but it's free to walk through the trails and meadow. The exhibit is definitely oriented towards kids, but there is plenty for adults to enjoy too. Each section is based around a Rhode Island ecosystem and has a mixture of models and live animals. There are also two red-tailed hawks kept in captivity outside the building. Probably the coolest part of my visit was walking out to the osprey nest by the water. So cool to see the two ospreys guarding their chicks! This is a manageable, affordable place to visit with kids, or just a fun stop if you love nature! I definitely paid more attention to the wildlife around me on the bike path after stopping in here!

    Paper moon plastic flower…read more who walks the wild woods? The Audubon Society of Rhode Island has been around since 1897 and is the third oldest Audubon Society in the country. It was actually started to help stop the destruction of wild birds for the commercial use of their feathers. Whole populations of great egrets and other beautiful birds were almost decimated because some fool decided the feathers looked cool on stupid hats. Fortunately some wise people cared. The Society also was also instrumental in stopping the use of DDT, established Rhode Island's first coastal cleanup, helped fight damning of rivers, promoted the effective Rhode Island recycling program and much, much more. The state of Rhode Island would be a much dirtier, stinkier, crummier and far less beautiful place if not for the tireless and continuing efforts of the society. The building in Smithfield is the state headquarters and it has a great library, cool gift shop and some pleasant hiking trails. They organize trips and programs for both kids and adult and is a great place to get information on conservation or natural science. The folks there are always helpful and filled with dedication and will patiently take the time to answer any and all stupid questions. The society is now the state's largest private land owner with over 9,500 acres of wild habitat and open spaces. Places where critters can be wild and free. They also operate 14 wildlife refuges where people can quietly hike and exist in harmony with the wild creatures. For some reason many people seem intent on destroying the wild and pristine. The clean and pure. The Audubon Society will always be there to protect the woods, waters and wilderness. There are enough plastic flowers, synthetic materials and cement jungles. Thanks to the Audubon Society people can still see the wild, pure and unstained world.
