Sydney Wildlife is celebrating being 20 years old!
We are a volunteer group that is dedicated to rescuing and caring for Sydneys native wildlife. We receive over 13,000 calls a year for help with sick, injured or orphaned wildlife that require a volunteer carer go out to rescue and then care for them.
Below is a video link that talks about what Sydney Wildlife does. Please watch and enjoy.
The rehabilitation facility is still very busy with lots of different types of animals starting the final stages of their rehabilitation to prepare for release. The cheekiest of these is our little wombat warrior, Mulan, who has had a lot of fun doing wild wombat things and digging huge holes all over her enclosure.
As well as Mulan, we have wallabies of different ages belting around the enclosure and getting fit prior to being released.
With help from the donations that you have given to our project, we have been able to clean out and repair some of the older enclosures at the facility which has meant we have been able to accomodate a greater variety of wildlife needing space for their final stages of rehabilitation. Those currently making use of these facilities include bandicoots, butcher birds, tawny frogmouths, turtles, possums, magpies and lizards.
We hope you enjoy the photo's of some of the macropods in our facility celebrating our 20 year milestone with us.
