Help save native animals
Australia's wildlife is facing its toughest challenge yet. Floods, fires, droughts, pollution and habitat loss are devastating our precious native animals, leaving many sick, injured, orphaned or even homeless.
Our veterinarians and nurses work tirelessly to rescue, rehabilitate and release over 1,500 sick and injured animals each year. From delicate surgeries to months of recovery, each animal’s journey back to the wild is unique and takes enormous time, skill, and compassion.
This life-saving work is only possible because of people like you.
💚 Please donate to Taronga’s Wildlife Hospital. Together, we can save Australian animals - but we can’t do it without you.
