TEXAS STATE AQUARIUM’S WILDLIFE RESCUE CENTER
This episode of Big Blend Radio’s “Nature Connection” Show features Jesse Gilbert, senior biologist, President and Chief Executive Officer for the Texas State Aquarium Association, who talks about the new Port of Corpus Christi Wildlife Rescue Center. Watch here in the YouTube player or download the podcast on PodBean.
On March 2, 2023, the Texas State Aquarium will also open a new Wildlife Rescue Center. The goal is to use what the aquarium has learned about marine mammals to save wild animals in danger (many times of extinction). Once they bring affected animals to the rescue center, they treat them — as in a hospital — and then release them back into the wild. The program works hand-in-hand with U.S. Fish and Wildlife and other government entities to target and save endangered species.
