WLCC biologists could spend all day talking about the animals at the center but Wendy could spend a little extra time talking about a certain one…🐱

Sur, the bobcat, came to the center 3 years ago after having been hit by a car. He was deemed non-releasable to the wild and was understandably hesitant of people when he first arrived. Through lots of time and effort, he slowly gained trust of staff because of their hard work.
