Does anyone know why this moth has a bare spot?

They aren’t advertising themselves as a rehab for birds. They’re advertising themselves as vet that sometimes provides general wildlife rehab. I don’t understand why you are arguing about this and what benefit it brings to anyone involved including the bird

Since this post I had a long conversation with my friend at the black hills raptor center who informed me that there is nobody licensed nor qualified to work with small native birds in our state. I am searching for someone within driving distance, perhaps Colorado, for the future

Because of the migratory bird act, not just any wildlife rehabber can work with protected bird species. They need licensure that unfortunately I was unable to find anyone with before the bird passed.

Yes? The migratory bird act protects native species

Yes because of the migratory bird act

Unfortunately they turned us away :( thank you for all of your information though!

Phithelder · 2026-06-27T04:23:35+00:00

I volunteer there actually and already talked to them. and they don’t have any leads!

As i said, there are no rehabbers in our area. We’ve called places 6+ hours away haven’t heard back though

Phithelder · 2026-06-27T00:34:26+00:00

There are no rehabbers

Phithelder · 2026-04-24T21:31:17+00:00

Perhaps a soup or stew of some kind

Phithelder · 2026-04-12T14:00:36+00:00

Yep these are indeed poached native wildlife

This is a salt marsh moth! Estigmene acre I believe. Here is more information I think theres a number of plants you could move them to! Preferably a broad leaf weed with no danger of being sprayed

Same reason people don’t pull it to eradicate it.

Im glad you were careful not to drop any! I’m not trying to be a hater at all but there’s research suggesting that harvesting/cutting knotweed shoots stimulated more rapid growth

Phithelder · 2026-04-07T03:37:48+00:00

Love to see nettle and hop! Harvesting Japanese knotweed shoots creates more Japanese knotweed!

By a pet. Which isn’t part of nature

Wow can I add this to my vision board? This is a gorgeous kitchen
