SA Native Animal Rescue - SANAR

SANAR is a wildlife rescue group in South Australia, working with the community to rescue, rehabilitate, and release native animals. Need help with an animal?

Contact us via Messenger SA Native Animal Rescue strives to rescue, rehabilitate, and release native animals, working with local vets, animal shelters, and experts to provide the best care for each animal. SANAR is a wildlife rescue group in South Australia, founded by passionate wildlife carers. We have many experienced carers across SA who volunteer their time and energy to rescue and care for i

njured, sick, and orphaned animals. We have carers that can rescue and care for birds (including birds of prey), possums, koalas, kangaroos, echidnas, and reptiles (excluding snakes). Many species require around the clock care, including feeds, toileting and even emergency rescues so our volunteers are also donating their sleep (or lack of) to care for these amazing animals. Our volunteers supply their own equipment, use their own vehicles to transport and care for the wildlife in their own homes. We appreciate all donations, whether financial, donation of services or donation of equipment. Please send us a message if you want to make a donation towards the care of our wildlife.

Its warming up again as we near the end of the week with a high of 39°c forecast for Adelaide on Thursday 🥵🥵.

We know everyone is busy with school holidays, last minute 🎄Christmas🎄 preparations and work but if you could spare a few minutes to put out a dish of water or turn the sprinkler on for a few minutes to dampen the ground, the wildlife will appreciate it 🐣🦆🐦🦜🦎🐨🦘

We're all feeling the heat, including the wildlife, so please put some water out and reach out for any animals needing assistance 🥵

The babies and young fledglings have been struggling over the past few days of heat with more coming into care every day. Babies will sometimes jump out of the nest to escape the heat but instead end up in a position where they will die by predators or from dehydration and exposure.

03/12/2025

We have hot temperatures forecast across the state tomorrow, Please make sure that you keep and eye out for any wildlife showing signs of heat stress and dehydration. Putting out shallow bowls of water in the shade will help lizards and birds cool off. Using the sprinkler for short bursts is also helpful for cooling the environment and providing damp soil for them to forage in.

If you do find struggling animals please contain them and keep them out of direct airconditioning, offer water in a small dish but please do not force them to drink. Contact us or a local vet for advice and support, the animal may require more than just rest and water to recover.

We’re thrilled at SA Native Animal Rescue to share that our possum team has received a wonderful delivery of pouches in all sizes, generously supplied by the Animal Rescue Craft Guild (ARC). These handmade pouches are an essential part of caring for orphaned and injured possums, providing comfort and security during their rehabilitation.
A heartfelt thank you to ARC and their dedicated makers for supporting our work. Your generosity helps us give these animals the best possible chance to heal and thrive.

How cute is this tiny baby lorikeet 😍 it loves sleeping on its back after a feed 😁

01/11/2025

Spa day at the wildlife retreat ☺️

These lorikeets and rosellas are learning how to eat which is a very messy business! Fortunately, all of the babies love a bath and a good blow dry 😁

🌧🌩⛈️

There is extreme weather forecast over the next few days and we've already had babies coming in soggy and cold with the bit of rain we had today! Please keep an out out for them as they won't be able to seek shelter and may become hypothermic.

If you do find a waterlogged animal in is important that they have an external heat source such as a water bottle filled with hot tap water (not boiling) and wrapped in a towel and placed near them in a box. You can also use a towel to wrap the animal when placing it in a box to help dry it.

The most important thing is to reach out for help and not force the animal to eat or drink until it is with a wildlife carer or vet.

Once again SANAR is saying thanks to ARC for the generous food donation for our wildlife in care. Without donations like that,we would not be able to care for our precious creatures.
Thanks ARC .
