***** Seeking Materials Post……..

We have recently been told we are going to need to lift our big salt water storage tanks. Phil is seeking plastic pallets that will make his job of getitng our tanks higher, a lot easier! If you see any, know anyone who may be willing to make a contribution to treatment and rehabilitation of Sea Turtles please 🙏 ask if they would mind. We are seeking about 5 of them.
As we have said, many times and will keep saying, we appreciate everyone’s support for finding things we need at a cheaper cost which in turn keeps our running costs down. We are so fortunate to have a wonderful community of wildlife caring souls reading our page and helping make our efforts possible. We really do appreciate it 🙏😎❤️g about

***€€* Wishlist Post 👏❤️👏🙏🥰❤️‍🩹

We have recently been asked by a number of people of is there anything we need that could help us save costs and do our work more effectively or efficiently.

From time to time, we will post pictures of the goods, both expensive and inexpensive, that we are really in need of. so that if you wish to gift 🎁 to share your support for the work my husband and I do, allowing us to spend his income on the costs of running our facility. Like the $12k insurance bill due next week!

Each month, we will add the goods we are searching for to the 2025 Christmas 🎄 Wishlist too. This years is Digital Thermometers, a MacBook Pro Laptop and Kevlar scissors.🤞🤞🤞😊😊😊🙏

I have been completing more training this week, when i get time to! Thanks to IFAW for running Wildlife search and resgue training.

It is really great to see how much work many organisations and govt departments, including Zoos Victoria, have finally done to be ready and have us all trained and prepared to be activated, if and when we have bushfires again. Wildlife Search and rescue is an area that was never fully developed and we most certainly had no preparedness for in the years gone before us. Hopefully prior planning will allow for better Coordnated responses, with us all working together, in future Bushfire emergencies.

Big Change for our 5kg babies.

Young Rusty and Boris are less than impressed with the change in environment. I had to stay with them a long while as Rusty couldn’t cope and made Boris upset too. They calmed down in time, with my legs around and their trusty beds.

Please consider helping us to continue to care for more animals in need, like Rusty and Boris, if you can. Your ongoing help allows us to keep doing what we do. Please head to https://www.gofundme.com/f/save-our-sanctuary-mudgeroo-jervis-bay

They like snuggling, but sometimes they just need their space. ❤️❤️

***** New Volunteer Update!!
I have now finally had a chance to get back to every one of the wonderful people who enquired about volunteering here with us at Mudgeroo. I hope i didn’t miss anyone, but if i did, I am sorry. I was so sick in August and busy in the whole 6 weeks, please flick me another message and i will get back to you promptly now!!

To update you all, we have three new lovely volunteers start with us, who are now happily learning on their given day, but we could still do with more. There is so much admin, husbandry and maintenance to do for our wildlife and to keep a place like this running smoothly. So if you have enquired and it didn’t suit you, we understand. Thankyou for all the interest, it was amazing and Wildlife Rescue South Coast has some new much valued members 😎🙏👏❤️

Jyirio, Wollongong street artist, was here yesterday producing some little masterpieces on our bins! Livening up an otherwise daggy object out on our street weekly, could not have been done better or by a nicer guy! Highly recommend.

Let’s all sign this petition!!

Petition to save wildlife! Wildlife collisions on the Monaro Highway happen often for many drivers in the Snowy Monaro Regional Council, NSW, Australia. Vehicle accidents occur due to the sudden appearance of animals such as wombats on the road. We want to address this issue urgently by advocating for the installation of wildlife fencing along key sections of the Monaro Highway.

By erecting barriers, we can prevent wildlife from wandering onto the road and significantly reduce vehicle accidents. Implementing wildlife fencing has proven effective in similar rural regions by drastically reducing such incidents.

By signing this petition, you are taking a stand to protect local wombat and other wildlife populations, enhance road safety for all motorists, and help preserve the unique biodiversity of our region. Thanks!
