23.01.2022 Unfortunately we are seeing an increase in native animals being admitted to Native Animal Rescue with poisoning. Using baits such as rodenticides to control r...ats and mice in your backyard can create a serious problem for native animals which may eat the dead and dying rodents or ingest the bait. Instead of using rodenticides to control pests, try more natural approaches such as removing rubbish from your yard, keeping pet food indoors and picking up fallen fruits beneath your fruit trees. If you do decide to use rodenticides, then it’s important to use ‘first generation’ anticoagulant rodenticides which break down much faster and are less likely to cause poisoning in native wildlife.

13.01.2022 Turtle nesting season is underway! And this season is set to be a busy one for green turtles due to favourable climatic conditions at their feeding grounds over... the past few years. It’s wonderful watching these animals in their natural habitat but it’s also important to maintain a safe distance, this includes: Keeping at least 15m away from turtles emerging from the ocean At least 1m behind turtles that are laying eggs At least 2m behind turtles that are returning to the ocean To learn more visit https://www.dpaw.wa.gov.au//th/threatened-animals/turtles : Green sea turtles on Barrow Island (Parks and Wildlife Service/Joanne King)

08.01.2022 There is a myth that goes around each summer that if you have bobtails on your property then you won't have snakes as they keep the snakes away... Myth Busted!

07.01.2022 Yet again we are disappointed with the amount of people on FB that advise others NOT to take injured wildlife to Vets. "Don't take it to a vet, they will just kill it" Why would you deny a suffering animal? Especially, one that is in pain. ... Shelters/Rehabilitators work along side their local Vets. Rehabilitators are NOT Vets, and rely on their assistance for xrays, medications etc. If we advise you to take an animal to a Vet there are many reasons why; - In the case of obvious breaks, Vets can do initial assessment (xrays etc) - Vets are able to administer pain relief - Often it saves on double handling. If you can take it to a vet, it's less stress on the animal as it's not being passed around. - Rehabilitators/Shelters have wildlife to care for. Often they have to wait in clinics like everyone else, so once the Vet has done their assessment it's just a matter of someone picking it up saving valuable time. So to those advising people not to take wildlife to Vets, please stop. It's just cruel.

05.01.2022 Hiya everyone, Just wanting to share this greatly informative documentary, created by Ross McGibbon. I promised myself I’d wait to watch it on my birthday, it’s... been a three month wait, but it is so very worth it! Thanks Ross, for some great information!
