A helping hand for wildlife in need.
Wildlife Victoria is a non-profit charity that has operated an Australian wildlife rescue service in Victoria since 1989.
Members of the public can report incidents of sick, injured, or orphaned native animals found anywhere across the state to Wildlife Victoria’s 24/7 wildlife emergency response service on (03) 8400 7300 or by filling out the online reporting form.
This is a free service provided through the generous support of Wildlife Victoria donations.
You can help us continue our vital work rescuing and rehabilitating sick, injured and orphaned native animals by making a donation today.
