PAWS Performing Animal
Welfare Society
April 2017
When PAWS rescues or receives wild animals in need of sanctuary, we commit to many years of providing the best possible care for them. Meet the animals with March anniversary dates marking their arrival at PAWS - all of whom have been with us for more than 10 years. We also remember PAWS' co-founder, the late Pat Derby, who so passionately dedicated her life to the cause of captive wild animals.
