Local women establish home-based rehabilitation center in Rye Brook to care for local wildlife in need
When a person gets hurt, they go to a doctor. If their pet is hurt, they call a vet. But what does someone do if they find a wild animal that’s hurt? If they live in the Port Chester and Rye Brook area, they can call or text the Cottontail Cottage Wildlife Rehabilitation Center hotline at 914-933-7559.
