Tinkerbell the Feathertail Glider (pictured) came into care at only 2gms with eyes closed after being found on a driveway.
She grew quickly which was great as it meant the 2 hourly feeds thoughout the night only lasted for a month.
While Tinkerbell was being handraised, two other Feather tail gliders came into my care so she was able to have company and a small group was formed.
When large enough, all 3 gliders were taken to our rehabilitation facility, that your donations helped build, and they started to learn how to behave and feed them selves for when released back into the wild.
I am happy to say after 2 months in rehabilitation they were all very fit and ready to be released so we released them in their little group.
It is always a good feeling when you have been able to hand raise animals to the point that they can be releasd back into their natural habitat.
Thank you for your support.
I hope you enjoy the festive season.
Kind regards Joan
