December 2013: the past 2 and half months have flown by with the Shelter very busy over the warmer months.

Morgan was successfully released after spending 6 weeks in care due to serious eye & ear infections. He made a full recover and is now back home. Lulu, an older female koala was rescued from Currawong Close after she was found on the ground dehydrated. After spending 12 days in care she was successfully released. We also had the successful release of Mickey and Minnie our young koalas who were in care for a month prior to their release.

Three koalas were found dead in the township area - an older male with a large wound to his rib area (cause unknown) and two males with evidence of dog attacks. An older, extremely thin, female was also found dead and showing evidence of starvation.

Two injured cockatoos were rescued and taken into care but unfortunately passed away.
