In addition to the wonderful work Sydney Wildlife does in the community and the rehabilitation facilities we are able to provide at Waratah Park, we have spent the past two and a half years working hard towards purchasing a motorhome to be converted into a Mobile Wildlife Clinic. The clinic will be used for the treatment of injured and sick native wildlife in Sydney.
Excitement reached fever-pitch on 14th August when we finally drove our brand new van back from the factory!
In April we found exactly what we wanted - a Jayco Conquest FA 25-1. And because Jayco Sydney gave us such a good deal, we were able to afford a brand new one! We were allowed to make a few decor choices but the main thing would be getting internal modifications done. The team at Jayco were so helpful that they offered to do the modifications for us at their cost and they threw in a generator!
We are now working on getting all the equipment installed and getting the logo and graphics onto the vehicle but the hardest part is over.
Now we are coming into spring we receive a lot more calls for wildlife rescues. Once they have been checked by a specialised wildlife vet in the new mobile clinic and have been nursed back to health, they will then be able to complete their rehabilitation in our facility before being released back into the wild.
Sydney Wildlife is passionate about giving the wildlife we rescue the best possible chance of returning to live out their lives in their natural habitat. Being able to provide quick medical attention in the Mobile Clinic and ongoing care in our Rehabilitation Facility, we are ensuring they have the best possible chance of a happy ever after.
