The oiled wildlife rehabilitation center in Fort Jackson, La., is the recipient of all birds, and occasionally other creatures, affected by the spill. It serves as an animal MASH until that cleans and cares for the creatures until they are well enough to be released. More info can be found at tristatebird.org and IBRRC.org.
