We have all been inundated with rabbits! 🐇 Learn how to strike while iron is hot. And keep tuned for the local landcare network field days in Amphitheatre dealing with rabbits

The green pick is tapering off or gone. Rabbits are hungry.
Now is a great time to invest in rabbit reduction by correctly using approved commercial bait products.

How to use baiting to support land recovery like this is a skill you can learn here:

We are opening a new intake for transport volunteers!

As reports of sick, injured, and orphaned wildlife continue to grow each year, it’s crucial for us to find people with an ongoing commitment to get animals to and from treatment and care facilities.

Transport volunteering might be a good fit if you:
🚗Are aged 18 years or older and have a current Australian Driver's Licence and registered vehicle
🚗Want to play a key role in helping native animals, without having to handle them
🚗Are willing and able to drive long distances – especially mid-week
🚗Meet the eligibility requirements

If this sounds like the right opportunity for you, please join us online from 7:00 – 8:00 PM, on Wednesday February 11th, for a transport information session. In this session, we will go into more detail about our organisation, explain exactly what the transport volunteer role requires, and do our best to answer any questions so you can decide if it’s a good fit and whether you’d like to apply.

***Please note that only people who have attended an information session will be invited to apply.
