Asis Wild Animal Rescue Center

In these programs special emphasis has been given to the

commitment that human beings have towards wildlife.

Why a Rescue and Rehabilitation Center ?

Costa Rica is known for its great diversity of plants and animals. However, human development and the accompanying destruction of natural habitat, not to mention illegal hunting, have led to a precipitous decline in wildlife populations, causing many species to be in danger of extinction.

We believe by doing our part in helping injured wild animals in the San Carlos area, we will be helping to restore the balance between man and nature.

Who we work with?

We are officially recognized by and work in close coordination with the Ministry of the Environment and Energy(MINAE) and the Monteverde Conservation League, a non-profit organization that administers the world-renowned Children´s Eternal Rainforest, a private reserve of 54,000 acres.


We also look forward to working with you either as a day visitor or a short-term volunteer through our volunteer programs. If you are organizing a group event focusing on understanding more about Costa Rican wildlife or culture, we have special group programs catered towards high school students and practicing professionals. For customized group programs, please contact us.
