DING DONG DING DONG DING DONG!
Western Australians!
Are you aware that NO wildlife rescue work in WA is funded by the government?? We get zero funding. At all. And more than 80% of wildlife treatment is carried out by only 6 main charities in perth, with 90 small rehabilitators (literally individuals and small local groups) across the state.
With bird flu arriving, we literally CANNOT afford to continue operating. Two charities have already closed, and the rest are hanging on by a thread. If government funding is not received in the next budget, then all 6 major charities will permanently close their doors. We simply do not have the proper facilities or PPE to deal with an animal pandemic.
