NRT cannot accept unwanted domestic animals or injured wildlife at the Sheep Pasture facility. We do not accept roosters at any time for NRT flocks. For the safety of  animals and people, please do not drop off pets or other animals at Sheep Pasture or any organization before making arrangements with a facility that is prepared to accept them. 

​A reminder from Mass Wildlife... if you find young animals-
If You Care, Leave It There!
​Ticks are out!
This year, ticks are enjoyed a wet and mild winter throughout most of southern New England. With warm temperatures and damp conditions continuing into summer, ticks are very comfortable being out and about.
If you spend time outdoors, including at Sheep Pasture, be sure to check yourself and your pets for ticks after any outdoor activities. You never know if you have an unwelcome hitchhiker!

Please note that hunting or trapping of any kind is not allowed on any NRT property, at any time. For more information, ​please visit the NRT's FAQ page by clicking here.
