Founded in 1995 as PigHoppers, Great Lakes Rabbit Sanctuary reflects the need for safe homes for unwanted rabbits, who are often overlooked by shelters and humane societies. GLRS offers a permanent, safe, happy home to many of the animal residents who arrive here. Most healthy rabbits are adopted out to good homes. All mammals are spayed or neutered, health permitting, so as not to contribute to the overpopulation of these animals in our society. GLRS educates the public about the plight of these animals in our society, their needs and required care, through tours of the sanctuary, a newsletter, and public appearances. One of our goals is to prevent rabbits from ending up in a shelter or sanctuary by educating people who are considering acquiring one of these animals.

Last Chance Forever, The Bird of Prey Conservancy's mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, and release sick, injured, and orphaned birds of prey. Raptors are important ecological barometers, indicator species, that tell us messages concerning the over-all health of our environment. After all, they live on the same earth that we do, breath the same air, and drink the same water. Being smaller than us, toxins and other forms of environmental ills will affect them quicker than humans. LCF also provides sanctuary for raptors that are unfit to return to the wild. Many are used as Educational Ambassadors in public demonstrations, or as surrogates used to teach young raptors how to survive in the wild. LCF performs over 300 educational programs a year to a wide variety of audiences in varied venues.
