    Sul programma

    During your stay, you will be involved with all facets of rescuing, rehabilitation and caring for injured and orphaned wildlife. All will be learnt in a safe friendly environment to suit your individual abilities. You will most likely encounter wildlife from the air, land and sea during your stay. Wallabies, numerous bird species, Cassowaries,  Echidnas, reptiles, gliders, turtles are among the many species you may encounter. 

    We are located in one of the oldest rainforests in the world, over 80 million years old. You never know what you might see.

    Being a wildlife advocate,  you will appreciate and experience all that is required in successfully managing our endangered wildlife. Food preparation, feeding of wildlife, cleaning of enclosures, washing pouches and other husbandry tasks are required.  None of these tasks are difficult. We are a NON SMOKING environment so definitely no smokers. We do have a very loving dog living in house so be prepared to be her best friend. You will have time when required to do your own thing,  we have skydiving,  rafting, reef trips at our doorstep. Push-bike available and supermarket nearby. Greyhound bus stop is just around the corner where we will meet you at the Wongaling Beach bus stop.

    You will be staying in a bungalow or in house with your own room, bathroom and toilet with use of our kitchen etc.
    We live on an acre of tropical rainforest with a tropical pool and wildlife.

    Please note that final payment is to be made directly to us one month prior to commencement date.

    Giornata tipica

    Most days we start early, our wildlife in care like their brekky from 7am onwards. We get everything fed, hopefully before a rescue call. Some animal husbandry, clean enclosures etc. then time for a coffee. Throughout the day wildlife need to be fed at around four hourly intervals so you will have time for a good break before and after lunch, depending on any rescues that eventuate. We are usually in and out , so you will get to explore our unique paradise with rainforests, beaches, jetties, lookouts, waterholes and much more. After an afternoon break, if the day goes well, everything needs a feed around dinner time and to be housed for the night. Food preparation is involved including fruits, insect, fish and meat products.

    A couple of days of the week we collect recyclable items which have to be sorted also, we get our hands dirty,  but it feeds our wildlife. Our community supports us and it is very rewarding. 

    We work hard when necessary and enjoy the quiet moments! You'll love it!

    *Please note Every day can be different, sometimes things run smooth,  other times complete chaos.
