NOBLE, Okla. -
A local organization said business is booming and it doesn’t see any signs of slowing down anytime soon.
WildCare Foundation is a nonprofit working to rescue rehabilitate and release animals. Executive director Inger Giuffrida said they re usually busy during this time of the year due to baby season, but nothing compares to the volume of admissions they ve seen so far this year.

Giuffrida said the organization has been able to adapt. Volunteers can come back as the state works towards getting back to normal. She is now debating whether there will be enough room for every animal.
