Wildlife Rescue Australia

Australia's National Wildlife Rescue Hotline

Wildlife Rescue Australia (WRA) is an Australia-wide, specialist volunteer organisation dedicated to the rescue of native animals.

The Call Centre is staffed (at any one time) by up to 10 or more home-based, volunteer phone coordinators located anywhere in Australia. They use the search engine Map Maker to generate a Google-type map for each rescue. The map shows the location and details of the animal to be rescued, together with nearby rescuers, carers, vet clinics etc, even tree climbers and chimney sweeps, i.e. any person or organisation who may be able to assist in a rescue.

Any one of thousands individuals or organisations can be contacted by phone, email or text within seconds of a call being accepted, with a few clicks of a mouse.

WRA Phone: 1300 596 457

Call the 24-hour Call Centre to report a sick, injured or orphaned animal
