Part III Program Service Accomplishments Friends of Texas Wildlife FTWL is Montgomery County's only wildlife intake and rehabilitation center that accepts injured, orphaned, and abandoned native Texas wildlife. We take in several thousand animals annually, from Montgomery and many counties to the north of us, of a variety of different species, in need of treatment and care. FTWL holds training classes on how to rehabilitate various species for home rehabilitation and release. We sub-permit volunteers and have a mentorship program. In addition to the rescue and rehabilitation of wildlife, FTWL also has an educational program, taking education animals to schools, community events, nursing homes, working with scout groups, and the like. We teach how important the environmental ecosystem is and how each animal fits into the system. We also educate people on how to co-exist with wildlife. FTWL has around 100 volunteers, who provided 2,114 hours of volunteer work in 2023. The updates for 2023 include the following: The Education Center fence was destroyed by an errant vehicle without insurance, so we raised funds to cover the repairs. Our auto gate that was installed on the property the previous year, was stolen ? including most accessories so we raised funds to cover repairs. We had an automatic generator installed for emergency power outages which has come in handy several times already. We had our driveways paved which was a huge improvement to the existing gravel. We made necessary repairs to some of our mews, including new perches, replacing warped slats and loose ceiling boards. We added fans and UV lighting to our education mews.
