Jaguar Rescue Center Foundation

The Jaguar Rescue Center is a temporary or permanent home for ill, injured and orphaned animals. Working with all kinds of wild animals like felines, primates, reptiles, birds etc, the JRC provides veterinary services, round-the-clock care and comfort to animals that would otherwise be unable to survive in the rainforest or in the sea of the Caribbean. The primary goal of the JRC is to rehabilitate animals and reintroduce them back into their native habitats. Monkeys, birds, sloths, snakes and more are brought to the JRC and treated by professional veterinarians, caregivers and a hard-working team of staff and volunteers. In addition to the animal-care services, the JRC provides educational services to the residents and visitors of Costa Rica, as well as internship and research opportunities for biologists, veterinarians and researchers from around the world.
