25.01.2022 Anybody would think it was cold outside. Pricilla, Willa and Chloe have decided in front of the fire is the place to be.

24.01.2022 Thanyou Anastasia for once again having your group of ladies make some pouches for our rescued joeys. They are always very much appreciated as like myself many of our carers do not sew. Also a new carer usually has no pouches so we can pass the Joey on with a couple of pouches to give them a start. I enjoyed bringing Bella up to meet the group and saying Thankyou to the girls for making the pouches. Ann

22.01.2022 One very lucky possum was saved after being attacked by crows and taken to the vet with a badly damaged tail. Unfortunately the tail had to be amputated so is going to live with a family who will love him and give him all the attention he needs. He is drinking very well looking very bright and is now all tucked up in a nice warm pouch. Ann

22.01.2022 Had this girl brought in tonight after she had finally been caught when her mother had abandoned her.She was on one of our members property who has Roos and has wild Roos who come and visit. She weighs about 5 kilos but as she has been on her own for at least a week now needs a lot of tender loving care. Looks very sad but is now nice and warm cuddled down in her pouch with her new mum. Being fed little and often taking her bottles really well. Good luck little girl you are in safe hands now so hope you are going to be okay. She has the bushiest eyebrows I have ever seen on a roo which looks very cute. Ann

21.01.2022 Had a call from Scotch College about a roo that had been contained in a tennis court for 24 hours and was being harassed by magpies. Was very quickly caught up by John and with the help of his brother taken out to where he came from and released back out. Ann

21.01.2022 Had a great morning meeting with Jason Gillespie and Mick McIntyre who came to visit me to celebrate world kangaroo day. It was a very special morning in helping them to be able to promote the day and Jason got to feed Bella a bottle then to feed Prince and Casper.

09.01.2022 Remembering today especially our Founder and President for 28 years. Dot Berris was loved and respected by all who met her. A very sad loss to her family and the wildlife community :( Jo

07.01.2022 Lachlan meeting my big boy who was in a film called the Flipside and is the most gentle roo you could ever wish to have.

04.01.2022 Love this girl so much .. 9c here at present .. Tucked Angel up in one of her blankies and she opened an eye and put her nose up and asked for a kiss xx

03.01.2022 Going to miss them. Thankyou Jenny Hallam for doing the majority of the work ! Cheers Jo

02.01.2022 Have to say a big thankyou to the police who had to put this joeys mum down due to her injuries. They noticed movement in the pouch but didn’t want to remove the Joey so rang through to the call centre who contacted us. Thankyou Hazel and Jasmine for doing the call as it was rather late, and finding the police still there with lights flashing which made the roo easier to find. She is a dear little girl but was difficult to feed and is now doing a lot better. .Ann

01.01.2022 Cheers Jo The following information has been shared by Taronga Zoo. WARNING - Wildlife Rehabilitator and Vet Safety Awareness: Please looks after yourself and each other during this mouse plague. In the face of the plague, the Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Authority has doubled the allowable concentration of zinc phosphide in mouse bait. Wildlife can be off-target victims of this intoxicant. Affected animal remains can be a source for potential human exposure.... Zinc phosphide is a potent rodenticide that is activated by moisture and acids in an animal's stomach to release a highly toxic gas - zinc phosphine. DO NOT CONDUCT POST MORTEM EXAMINATIONS ON UNUSUAL WILDLIFE MORTALITIES IN PLAGUE AFFECTED AREAS. If you find wildlife that may be affected by rodenticide please call the Enviroline on 131 555 so that an investigation can be initiated and remains collected safely to protect humans and to prevent secondary intoxications of pets and scavenging wildlife. Mice also house microbes that can pose a threat to human health - learn more in the NSW DPI advice below. https://www.epa.nsw.gov.au/.../epamedia210222-nsw-epa.... https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/.../staying-healthy-during-a...
