Help the Mandurah Wildlife Rescue Centre
The Mandurah Wildlife Rescue Centre has been helping save the lives of our native animals since 2002. We rehabilitate sick, injured, orphaned and displaced wildlife, and undertake education offsite for community and school groups. We care for birds, reptiles and small mammals and marsupials and work to rehabilitate injured native animals and successfully release them back into the wild.
This year Mandurah Wildlife Rescue and the local community rallied together to support the animal fire victims of South Australia collecting and distributing over a pallet of first aid supplies.
But now we need your financial support. The Centre's main financial support comes from public donations. But, since the fires, it has become more difficult to obtain the financial backing which we need to continue the work of wildlife rehabilitation. And now we are all dealing with Covid 19 which means the centre has had to go into lockdown. We are unable to go into the community or festivals appeal for donations.
Mandurah Wildlife Rescue has no paid staff and is completely reliant on more than 60 volunteers who make the centre function. Our dedicated team of volunteers take care of the animals seven days a week, 365 days of the year. They take on a range of duties and responsibilities from animal care, to sewing pouches for joeys, and maintaining the centre’s grounds.
At any given time the Mandurah Wildlife Rescue can cater for up to 150 animals. The hospital includes a triage, ICU and recovery rooms and enclosures for all of our patients. The centre also includes flight aviaries and large enclosures for rehabilitation and training so animals can be returned to the wild.
Wildlife rehabilitation can take years as baby animals go through a process of being hand-reared and fed and are then slowly removed from human contact where they learn to be wild again in preparation for release.
Mandurah Rescue Centre relies entirely on grants and donations to survive. Covid-19 has had a huge effect on our donations. We need to buy food for our animals, maintain our hot-boxes that are used to provide care to our reptiles and baby animals, maintain our aviaries, and to continue to look after our injured native animals.
Now we need your help to prepare for baby bird season and continue our vital work with other injured native animals. We need money to continue to pay our bills and help save our native wildlife. If we cannot raise the money we need many wild animals may die, or live shortened, painful lives with debilitating injuries.
Please donate today so the Mandurah Wildlife Rescue Service can continue to save our precious wildlife. Even the smallest donation can help.
