The success of Carolina Raptor Center's raptor rescue programs depends heavily on the support of volunteers and donors. Dedicated rehabilitation volunteers pick up injured raptors all over the Carolinas and transport them to Carolina Raptor Center's rehabilitation facility. Weekly volunteers care for newly admitted patients, dispensing medications and weighing food rations. Other volunteers care for all permanent resident birds- making sure aviaries are clean and safe, feeding birds daily, and weighing birds to monitor a healthy weight. Local veterinarians provide emergency surgery and diagnostic equipment, and provide a source for medications and medical supplies.
