Our Work With Wildlife
Some of Our Wildlife Studies
From Around The World

Veterinary Advances for Wildlife
Since 1967, we have invested $28.9+ million in more than 740 wildlife health studies. We’ve contributed to improved reproduction strategies for endangered species, identified the impact of environmental toxins on wildlife, and established in-the-field medical care for the mountain gorillas of Rwanda. We also fight wildlife health crises, with support from our Betty White Wildlife Fund.
Understanding Disease Transmission in Bottlenose Dolphins
Researchers will develop a modeling tool to better understand disease transmission and forecast future disease outbreaks in Atlantic bottlenose dolphins living in the Chesapeake Bay.
Wildlife around our planet have suffered great losses over the past 40 years; in fact, animal populations have fallen on average by 52% since 1970. Habitat destruction, poaching and climate change are contributing to this decline, as are established, emerging and re-emerging diseases. But, Morris Animal Foundation is fighting back.
Identifying Threats to Endangered West Indian Manatee
Researchers will determine causes of mortality in a subspecies of West Indian manatees to improve health and conservation of these endangered animals.
