HOW TO SUPPORT SMALL NSW WILDLIFE CARERS IN THE BUSHFIRES

While we are still rehabilitating our own Koala survivors from the Queensland Pechey Hampton Bushfires in November/December 2019, we are heartbroken at the devastation occurring and the mass loss of wildlife in New South Wales and Kangaroo Island.

The public attention for the volunteer wildlife rescuers has been incredible world wide and many people are confused about where to donate to help small branches or groups of wildlife carers direct, with many worrying donations will be used for administration purposes.  We have asked around with fellow wildlife carer & rescuer friends both here in Queensland and also in New South Wales and here is a small list of recommended groups that would be grateful for any assistance in New South Wales if you would like to support their work.
