Your MISART on site at the Kalamazoo River Oil Spill

The Michigan State Animal Response Team was one of the first responders to assist wildlife in the Kalamazoo River Oil Spill. The MISART van loaded with cages and equipment was integral to those early efforts. We've exhausted our supplies, but continue to help with our volunteer efforts. The pictures tell the story, you can see MISART veterinarians helping with oil covered wildlife. We're winning this battle and helping the animals! You can help too! Volunteers are being coordinated through Hands On Battle Creek.

Your PayPal donation to MISART will allow us to restock our supplies and continue to assist.
