The Barry R. Kirshner Wildlife Foundation
The Barry R. Kirshner Wildlife Foundation is a special place right here in Butte County. Equal parts wildlife sanctuary, educational park, and research center, the Foundation is home to a remarkable assortment of wild and exotic animals, many of them endangered species.
Every dollar counts -
If everyone in Butte County were to donate just $2 dollars, we could easily move the animals!
