Fox Wood Wildlife Rescue is a Wildlife Rehabilitation facility, Education Center and Sanctuary located in the rolling hills of East Concord, NY.

Fox Wood is dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating New York State wildlife with return to the wild being our goal. Our small size enhances the high quality, individualized care for our patients and permanent residents.

Fox Wood is a sanctuary for foxes that have disabilities that render them unable to survive in the wild. Some of these foxes serve as ambassadors for our educational programs.

Fox Wood is an educational center providing on site educational programs given by a NYS Certified Science teacher.

As of July 2000, we are the only wildlife center in Erie County licensed to accept and care for animals deemed Rabies Vector Species (RVS Certification). At the present time, this includes bats, skunks and raccoons.

Fox Wood is a 501(c)3 Not for Profit Organization supported entirely on donations from the community and persons who love animals.

Fox Wood is a United Way of Buffalo and Erie County Participant

We are the first Wildlife Rehabilitation facility to receive New York State RVS Certification status in this portion of New York. We are the only facility to specialize in the rehabilitation of Fox in New York. Our expertise in the rehabilitation and handling of native wild canids is known not only across New York State, but throughout the US and Canada. Fox Wood president, Elise Able is a highly regarded writer and speaker on Eastern coyote and Red fox behavior and rehabilitation.
