What should I do if I find an injured animal?
Please call Kerry's Wildlife Rescue & Care Inc immediately on 0431 674 016 or take the animal to your nearest vet (there will be no charge).
Base of Operations: 4 Reis Street Woolloongabba, QLD, 4102
Please DO NOT attempt to handle snakes, bats, adult koalas or adult kangaroos and wallabies as they can cause serious injury.
Injured animals are very susceptible to stress, so they have to be handled carefully. To reduce the animal's stress as much as possible, please follow this advice.
Move the animal away from any danger and into a quiet, dark environment. Contain in a cardboard box with a small towel or blanket inside to provide warmth and comfort.
DO NOT OFFER ANY FOOD OR WATER as native animals have very specialised diets, plus feeding an animal suffering from shock could be fatal.
Note the exact location the animal was found – most animals are territorial and must be released back at the rescue site.
Keep the animal as quiet and undisturbed as possible.
Please call Kerry's Wildlife Rescue & Care Inc immediately on 0431 674 016 or take the animal to your nearest vet (there will be no charge).
It is illegal to keep native animals taken from the wild - they must be passed on to an authorised, licensed wildlife carer.
