If WIRES’ Wildlife Rescue Office closed for just one day, over 400 urgent wildlife calls would go unanswered—leaving hundreds of native animals without the lifesaving help they need.
Our 24/7 service supports over 148,000 animals each year, but we can’t do it without you. Your generous, tax-deductible donation by June 30 will help us strive to answer every urgent call, so native animals in crisis get help and our dedicated wildlife volunteers are armed with the training and resources they need.
You'll also help us respond quickly to wildlife disasters and support grassroots efforts across Australia through the WIRES National Grants program.
This is lifesaving work - and we are very grateful for the important role you play!
