Holidays come and go but the need to care for injured and orphaned hawks, owls, and other raptors is immediate and unrelenting – there are no holidays. Helping to keep our wild environment alive is the work of “Sam” and Bob Fox, founders and operators of Wild At Heart, and the nonprofit’s volunteers. GPPA is proud of its more than two decade-long association with Wild At Heart and urges The Peak’s readers to remember Wild At Heart as part of their holiday giving.
