Pelican Harbor Seabird Station: Miami’s Wildlife Hospital

What started in 1980 with a humble mission to nurse injured pelicans has evolved into a bustling wildlife hospital and conservation hub tucked into the waterfront.
Words by Anja Maltav | Lifestyle

At Pelican Harbor Seabird Station, dedicated staff and volunteers tend to sick, orphaned and injured native birds, mammals and reptiles around the clock, with the goal of releasing them back into the wild where they belong. From playful birds to shy opossums, injured sea turtles and wounded squirrels, every patient has a story. Beyond rehabilitation, the organization unfurls its wings into education and community outreach, inviting locals and visitors alike to learn, engage and celebrate the region’s remarkable biodiversity. It’s where the city’s heart meets wild wings at a true urban sanctuary for South Florida’s native wildlife; PelicanHarbor.org.
