22.01.2022 WE DID IT! It feels surreal to say this - but Andy Meddick MP's motion for pound reform just passed parliament 34-3. These reforms include mandatory kill repo...rting, ensuring rescue groups can save death row animals, reviewing outdated behavioural assessments, and more desexing initiatives (including considering TNR). The government has now committed to a working group for next steps and implementation of the reform. This is history in the making! I'm so proud of the 27,000+ Victorians who signed the petition and the many other Australians who have supported us even though they couldn't sign. THIS IS YOUR SUCCESS. And needless to say, I will forever be grateful to Andy Meddick MP and his dedicated team who have worked so hard to make this happen. Andy also delivered a beautiful speech in Parliament that I hope to share with you soon. I will keep you updated about what happens next - but give yourself a huge pat on the back, because you've earned it. We could not have achieved this without all of you. This is for Dash and for the thousands of others like him who did not need to die. Countless lives will be saved in the future because of them. THANK YOU! Photo credit: Lisa Davis

17.01.2022 Does anyone remember when Opi came in? He was comatised for two days solid and we worked so hard at getting him going and now loooooook

10.01.2022 I AM NOT YOUR PET. I AM NOT YOUR PROJECT. This is Emmott. Late afternoon yesterday a phone call was made to let us know that the member of the public had a wallaby that wasn't in good shape. I drove an hour and a half to pick him up only to find out firstly they had him for two weeks , they wanted to keep him but then he suddenly got sick. He was being kept in a small cage in a house with hunting dogs , sleeping in a green bag, he was fed baby formula for humans and cat kibble, bread , and some fruit and vegetables. I am honestly amazed he is still alive. Macropods NEED to be cared for by a licensed carer, without the right care , right nutrition and the right environment they will die. Our wildlife is not your pet !

08.01.2022 This beautiful big boy was rescued Saturday just gone. by krysti , with the help of Susie, To dart him. Krysti please could you coment on his story and when h...e was from . After krysti brought him to us at little urchins we assessed his injuries and felt he was luck to have come in to care so soon after his injuries as the cut were very fresh. A Tear in his leg and damage to his big toe swelling to his ankle and along the foot. To the end of his toe . Krysti called many a vets to get an X-ray of his foot as we’re not sure as yet if he has a fracture in the long bone of the foot. But no sign of infection. His shoulder was also swollen with a small tear in the arm . Cleaned the wounds and dressed them added a splint to the foot just in case there’s a fracture. . He is doing so well very settled and getting around really well. Looking for a name for him . Olivia pointed out we had bandaged him in soccer colours so we named him soccer Roo. Follow his story . He’s so beautiful and I am gaining his trust . Thank you krysti and Susie for saving him See more

02.01.2022 This is Peach Peach was attacked by a dog in Tathra and suffered a nasty wound to her leg , it wasn't until a week or so passed that she was called in by a member of the public and rescued by another carer only to end up here with me to be treated for a very nasty maggot infested wound. She was seen at pambula vet clinic by Dr Gabby and will be in care until she has made a full recovery

01.01.2022 Being nocturnal and living underground means the treatment of mange in wombats can be difficult and time consuming. I'm not at all surprised that there are pe...ople willing and able to do the work. Volunteers who work tirelessly to ensure wombats are given the best chance at beating this devastating disease. One method known as the 'burrow flap' enables them to self medicate as they enter and leave their homes. Watch below as it's put to the test. I'm asking the Victorian Government to support mange treatment projects in this years budget. This important work will go along way toward securing wombat numbers into our future.
