14.01.2022 Remarkable vision of a platypus taking nesting material to its burrow. Arguably the world's most successful captive breeding program of platypus continues to pr...oduce results at Warrawong. Started by Dr John Wamsley in the 1990s, platypus have bred each year at the Sanctuary, and continue to do so. The secret to the success is in the "enclosure". Instead of building an aquarium, Dr Wamsley built an ecosystem. The theory being, platypus know how to breed, they just need a safe environment in which to do so. There is no need to waste exorbitant amounts of money on scientists, laboratories, and IVF programs... Just build a sanctuary and keep the foxes and cats away. The platypus will take care of the rest. The ecosystem owes a lot to a volunteer, Grant, who build a water pump for the Sanctuary, out of an old Holden Commodore V6 engine. The engine costs around $13 per hour to run. However, as the platypus at Warrawong are regarded as the last on mainland South Australia, they must be protected at any price. The Warrawong Sanctuary Foundation is working with Narelle and David to support their conservation efforts. The Foundation was established to create a paradigm shift in the way charities operate. According to the Australian Charities and Not for profits Commission (ACNC), up to 98% of donations to charities can be spent on administration. Therefore, it could be argued, some charities are misleading, if not actually deceiving the public, when it comes to their charitable work. The Warrawong Sanctuary Foundation invests 99.9% of donations directly to the specified project. There are no staff, and even the accountant, bookkeeper, and lawyer donate their services. Donations to the Foundation are tax deductible. https://www.paypal.com/donate

07.01.2022 Well that’s a wrap #fromthefield! Our dedicated Zoos SA conservation team are safely back on the mainland after helping our partners Kangaroo Island Land for ...Wildlife dig dozens of pitfall traps to monitor local animal populations over the past week. Here’s a brief look at the trip in numbers: Days: 5 Pitfall traps: 100 dug across 13 sites Buckets used: a whopping 250 (at least!) Heath monitors spotted: 1 Coffee pots brewed: numerous Shovels broken: 1 Yakka cuts: too many to count Exhausted conservationists: 8 Differences made: hopefully countless! All of this wouldn’t be possible without the support of local landholders in the north west of the island, whose private land we’ve been working on, and funding from the Australian Government Bushfire Recovery Program. And of course, the support of our amazing followers like yourselves. We hoped you’ve learned a little bit about what conservation in the field involves and make sure to keep an eye out for updates in the coming weeks on what the pitfall traps reveal! #fromthefield #savingspecies #conservation #privatelandconservation #kangarooisland #bushfirerecoveryau #nwca #northwesternconservationalliance
