Wildlife Rescuers is a group of unpaid volunteers who are members of Wildlife Victoria who specialise in the rescue and rehabilitation of wildlife in the northern suburbs.

We have been active rescuers, rescuing and handling various wildlife on a near day to day basis, including eastern grey kangaroos, possums, wombats, bats and various species of birds.  

Our role is one of rescuing injured, sick and orphaned wildlife and where possible releasing healthy animals back in to the wild.

We also engage in public education through presentations and the media and also conduct training on handling and rescuing wildlife.

We encourage you to browse through this site and become involved with wildlife in the northern suburbs.

We advise that the content on this website may distress some readers. Unfortunately this is the reality on what is really happening to Victoria's wildlife and what our volunteers face on a regular basis.
