Marine Rescue Boat & Equipment-AIMR
Donation protected
URGENT MISSION - to purchase a marine animal rescue boat and vital equipment required to refloat live stranded whale/s and dolphins
Due to a recent live whale stranding in NSW, AIMR (Australian Institute of Marine Rescues) has become aware of the lack of logistical infrastructure, and necessary equipment needed to get a whale back out to sea. Thus AIMR believes there is an urgent need for such necessary and basic equipment to be readily accessible and available for future strandings.
The equipment we are raising funds for will allow our Marine Mammal Veterinarian to assess the animal/s and determine the appropriate course of action required on an individual basis. The necessary equipment for refloatation of the animal will ensure a timely rescue.
OUR WISH LIST
1.Rescue Boat approximately $22,000
2.Harnesses $11,000
3.Abbott i-STAT portable clinical analyser $10,000
4.Volunteer safety equipment $5000
5.Pool (portable pool for smaller marine animals that need to be assessed) $3,000
6.Tow mats $3,000
7.Fire pump $2,000
8. Antibiotics $2,000
9. Consumables for blood collection (blood cartridges, syringes, needles, swabs etc) $1700
10. Sedatives $1,000
11. Temperature Probe approx $700
12. Wetsuits for volunteers $700
13. Hose $600
14. Stethoscopes $450
TOTAL $63,150
By assisting AIMR in acquiring this basic equipment, you will be helping future stranded animals have a far better outcome than the recent whale that stranded in Sawtell.
