Animal Patient Diaries

There’s a certain kind of person who volunteers at Mandurah Wildlife. They’re not in it for the glory, the social media content, or the chance to bottle-feed a baby kangaroo—though, yes, sometimes that does happen (and it’s as heart-melting as you imagine). The community here is built on that kind of quiet magic. It’s a wild mix of personalities—nurturers, problem-solvers, deep-thinkers, practical geniuses—and somehow, it works.

Goodwill is a rare and invaluable resource—one that Mandurah Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre (MWRC) depends on entirely to save and heal injured wildlife before returning them to the wild. Without the generosity of volunteers, donors, and sponsors, this life-saving work simply wouldn’t be possible.

We’re excited to share some wonderful news about our adorable ducklings! They’ve been thriving in our care, growing rapidly, and adapting well to their new environment. These little ones are eating well and keeping our volunteers on their toes with their playful antics—and let’s just say, they’re pooping a lot too!
