WIRES is Australia’s largest wildlife rescue organisation. WIRES has been rescuing and caring for sick, injured and orphaned native animals for over 35 years with a mission to actively rehabilitate and preserve Australian wildlife and inspire others to do the same.

WIRES operates a dedicated Wildlife Rescue Office assisting wildlife and the community across Australia 24/7, 365 days a year, providing rescue advice and assistance for over 130,000 animals annually, as well as providing full-time mobile Wildlife Emergency Responders operating across Greater Sydney, South-East Queensland and Tasmania.

WIRES is looking for volunteers to attend basic rescues, contain sick and injured wildlife and transport them urgently to a nearby veterinary clinic. No experience necessary as training is provided (via the Rescue 101 training program), which covers basic wildlife rescue skills, including handling and transportation, WHS consideration and first aid.
