The Schuylkill Center provides educational Field Studies featuring non-releasable native Pennsylvania animals that reside at our clinic. We travel to areas in the Greater Philadelphia area visiting schools, community centers, scout meetings, birthday parties, as well as many other types of events and celebrations.
