From the Chinook Observer, 6/4/08:
“The Peninsula now has a drop-off site where people can take injured birds and animals they have rescued.  The Sea Resources Hatchery in Chinook is cooperating with Sharnelle Fee, director of the Wildlife Center of the North Coast, to create a place for this purpose.
If you have an injured bird or animal needing medical attention, call the Wildlife Center, 503.338.3954 or 503.338.0331, to alert them and get instructions/directions.  You will be asked to deliver the wildlife to the drop-off site, put it in a cage there, and your good deed is accomplished.”

This will be a much-appreciated service for people who have been kind enough to drive an injured wild animal all the way to Astoria.

The Wildlife Center of the North Coast rehabilitates injured, sick, orphaned and displaced native wildlife with the goal of releasing healthy, viable wildlife back into the appropriate habitat. It is the only wildlife care hospital in the area and provides professional medical care for all native wild birds and animals, assisting over 2,000 wildlife patients each year. This all-volunteer organization is having an open house and you are invited!
