Giving wildlife a second chance

Walden’s Puddle provides care and treatment to sick, injured and legitimately orphaned Native Tennessee Wildlife, as well as, educational experiences to the community.

We are here to help you help wildlife in trouble. If you suspect an animal is orphaned, please observe to make sure its mother is not nearby. If you know the animal is orphaned or if you find an injured wild animal, call our Wildlife Admissions Line immediately at (615) 299-9938.
