As the largest wild bird rehabilitation facility in Vermont, the Vermont Institute of Natural Science Nature Center takes in 300 to 600 birds from all over the state each year, and has been known to bring in as many as 80 at a time.

In 2012, VINS performed more than 4,400 treatment-days of care, which includes treating 387 birds (including 61 raptors). The staff at the center released 53 percent of their patients back into the wild.
