As a volunteer organisation, Snowy Mountains Wildlife Rescue is busy all year round, but especially in winter with the seasonal increase of visitors to the region resulting in a high number of rescue and euthanasia call outs for wildlife involved in a motor vehicle accident (MVA) on highways and roads leading to our snow resorts and surrounding towns.
Kangaroo, wallaby, wombat and possum joeys are often orphaned, having been retrieved from the pouch of their recently killed mother. Many joeys need to be bottle fed around the clock and cared for 24/7 by our trained and licenced volunteer wildlife carers.
We need your help to ensure our rescued native animals are given the best chance at rehabilitation.
No matter how big or small, your donation is very appreciated and goes towards purchasing the essential equipment and specialised food we need to care for wildlife.
