Description

Carers play an important role in looking after our native wildlife. Professional and volunteer carers take care of sick, injured or orphaned animals, raising them back to health and maturity before releasing them into the wild. This was especially true for Frankie the galah and Teddy the wombat. Welcome to the fascinating, heartbreaking and rewarding world of wildlife carers!
