STROUDSBURG, Pa. — Every day, Wilderz at Pocono Wildlife near Stroudsburg takes in injured or orphaned wildlife.
A juvenile great horned owl is one of the newest residents receiving treatment after coming in infested with insects and unable to lift its head.
The center relies on volunteers and donations to help these animals.
State Representative Tarah Probst hopes to change that with House Bill 1522. It would help fund licensed wildlife rehabilitation centers throughout the state.
