If there is times we need you to show up or support then this is it ..get there early and beat the heat —🐊🐊 feed 10am
Deers are not native to #Australia and are classified as pests . Betty White named by me came in the same week we lost the dear human Betty White .She was worth rescuing like all creatures.Laws have changed and Bettty White needs a new enclosure or has to Be euthanised or found another home with the now corrected fencing requirements.She has grown up & loves her mob of sheep and goat friends . She is the most beautiful natured and brings great joy to many kids & adults who will never get to see a deer , especially in December for Xmas .Tommorows fundraiser is for the materials for new pen for Betty White , the labour has been donated by local businesses which is amazing .Help us keep her in whatever way you can .. oh and share in any capacity so we can reach our target ..large business donations or private ones can have signage on enclosure enquire at email listed on last pic ..
Hope to see you there bright and early ..9am

Afternoons with the mob 💚🦘🦘
Just an arvo hanging with mates in the bush
Nah I’ll let ya be mate 💚🦘
Evie and Adam were Hanging with older joeys in the big pen this week , not for long but they enjoyed it anyways 💚
Not one of the regular visitors but another one that decided to take a holiday in the Midwest.Fairy penguins originate from New Zealand they are the smallest of all penguins. While they are not a usual sight here they have been turning up rather frequently over the last few years .While this one was just a little dehydrated, he had to get a ride back to his home down south .Thankfully after some care he got a ride and is much happier in the cooler seas.
Adam’s progress
A little update on beautiful Adam who was brought in after being kept as a pet & not treated at all kindly ..Adam was so sad & badly dehydrated, he had the start of myopathy which wasn’t good . We cried tears for this little one , he had a beautiful nature and tried so hard to survive , thankfully he did ..his little face getting brighter every day . Please remember wildlife are NOT pets , they need special care to survive & thrive 💚 Do the right thing by them NOT You 💚🦘
Found in the bush underweight and very lethargic ..she allowed me to carry her with no protests That is not normal, she has been given pain relief , antibiotics and a tick treatment as she was covered ..She has growled at me and now has her head up - shows no sign of injuries and moves fine . Something internal for sure .. positive vibes for a great recovery for this young female kangaroo ,
Off ya go mate ..back home again .. this snake was released a while back , nice and safe ..Thanks to Tanya the reptile rehabber from Perth who took care of this python when he was found in the hood of a car that was sent to be crushed from the Midwest area .
When you just feel The vibe ..
When you just feel The vibe , this beautiful red kangaroo was very happy to be rescued after being kept as a pet for a while .Wildlife are not pets , this orphan can live a good life in the bush after being rehabbed and raised with a a mob for eventual release. This little one is 900 grams and a little underweight for his size .#kangaroo #orphanjoey #redkangaroo #marlu #strayamate #🦘 #youbeauty
