ANIMAL RESCUES - NZ WIDE
This post serves as a comprehensive list of Animal Rescues New Zealand wide.
Additional Rescues are added regularly as this is an ever-evolving project in progress. Please feel welcome to mention any Rescues that you know of which have been missed as well as any amendments or additional info.
NOTE: "MIXED ANIMALS" means this rescue takes in more than one kind of animal.
