  • We recently discovered Hawai'i Wildlife Center when looking for ways we could volunteer during our vacation on the Big Island. This amazing facility rehabilitates native Hawaiian birds, and the Hoary Bat, for release back into the wild. We are excited to tell you about our time spent exploring and to share with you how our family was able to give back to help the animals. We hope you'll consider stopping by Hawaii Wildlife Center if you are ever on the Big Island. We are so glad we did!
