Ex-pet raccoon Kiwi joins the WFFT family, highlighting the growth of the exotic pet trade and the suffering wild animals endure in captivity.
New wildlife rehabilitation enclosures at the WFFT hospital complete
For wildlife that is injured, sick or orphaned, hospital treatment is the beginning of their journey back to the wild. Once their health improves, they often need time to recover, and for some, time to grow and build the physical strength needed to get back to the outside world.
These new enclosures will support the recovery and rehabilitation of numerous wild animals – including lorises, macaques and bird species. They provide a safe space for them to heal after recovering from injuries, weakness and sickness.
Whenever a sick, injured or orphaned animal comes into our care, our goal whenever possible is to return them to the wild. The enclosures will also support new arrivals at our sanctuary undergoing vet care or quarantine, and sick resident animals requiring more intensive care from our veterinary team.
The project includes a large rehabilitation aviary. This space allows recovering birds to practise flying, move freely, and build physical strength. This is essential before they are considered for release into their natural habitats.
These new enclosures will help save many lives in the years to come.
We sincerely thank the Kawatra Foundation and the many other kind-hearted supporters for their generosity, which made this important project possible.
Every contribution helps us to care for and assist many more animals.
