Introduction to Wildlife Care and Rescue

Are you interested in becoming a wildlife carer or rescuer?


This course will provide you with information about how to achieve this. You will find out about the types of native animals that are rescued and come into care in the North Queensland area and gain a general understanding of the skills and equipment needed to rescue and care for them.
Whatever wildlife interests you - birds, echidnas, flying foxes, frogs, macropods, microbats, possums, reptiles or small mammals - this course is for you!

The course is presented by our NQ Wildlife Care species coordinators and is designed to provide you with a realistic introduction to wildlife care and practical rescue and handling methods so you can help our wildlife.

This event is not suitable for children under 12 years of age as some images of injured animals are seen. All children under 16 years of age must be accompanied by an adult.

If you are a vet, vet staff, or vet student please email: [email protected] to register for free.
