Goodbye RRANA, hello WIRES

After 35 years voluntary service to the community, Rescue and Rehabilitation of Australian Native Animals (RRANA), has made the difficult decision to close its doors. RRANA was a group of volunteers dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of sick, injured, or orphaned native animals and birds. Based in Broken Hill, they cover a huge geographical area reaching from the Queensland border and ending halfway between Broken Hill and Mildura including several far-west communities of Tibooburra, Darnick, and White Cliffs.

"This small group of dedicated volunteers spent their time making a difference to the lives of countless injured animals and I am certain that their amazing work will not be forgotten," Member for Barwon Roy Butler MP said.

To fill the gap left by RRANA, WIRES is now establishing a branch in the Far West.

To report injured wildlife, call 1300 094 737 or email them at [email protected]
