Animals killed in fire that destroyed central Pa. wildlife rescue
The Red Creek Wildlife Center's main clinic was destroyed in a Monday morning blaze.
The Red Creek Wildlife Center in Schuylkill County was destroyed and many animals killed in a Monday morning fire, officials confirmed.
Red Creek lost its main clinic in Schuylkill Haven and all of the animals housed there during a “catastrophic” blaze, the rescue wrote on Facebook.
About 4,000 animals are rescued and rehabilitated through Red Creek each year, the rescue said. It’s unclear exactly how many were killed in the fire. No humans were injured.
The cause of the Red Creek fire is under investigation.
Red Creek said other Pennsylvania rescues are assisting with food, medicine and care for the remaining animals. The rescue said monetary donations are the most beneficial way for the public to help Red Creek.
Red Creek is scheduled to break ground on a new facility next year. The rescue said more information will be coming on the rescue’s operations and future plans.
