  Description

  I am a Wildlife Foster Carer specialising in Kangaroos. We are a soft release site so the joeys stay with us and return to the wild from our property. I am working towards becoming a Wildlife Shelter. I am seeking support in care and welfare of the kangaroos and would like to share the experience with people who are interested and willing.
  We are on a 70 acre property opposite a State Forest and only 20 minutes from the Central Victorian town of Bendigo.

  Help

  We are seeking people who are kind and caring and passionate about animals. People who will be quiet and gentle with the young orphaned kangaroos who need to be cared for with absolute kindness. We need people who are meticulous about accuracy and cleanliness as the feeding requirements are crucial for the health of the animals. There will be some animal compound cleaning involved.
