#2.15 Round the Clock Care for Orphaned Roos - What It’s Like To Volunteer at a Wildlife Sanctuary
Manage episode 379362764 series 2945632
Australia has some of the most unique (and dare we say it darn cutest) wildlife on earth from koalas, emus and long-nosed potoroos (extra points if you've seen that elusive little creature!), but our most well known inhabitant is certainly the kangaroo.
Hailey Sullivan spent her time in Australia getting to know and care for these rambunctious marsupials as a volunteer wildlife carer. We find out what it's really like to live and work at a wildlife sanctuary deep in the The Kimberley in Australia's Western State.
In this chat we cover:
- What do you do as a wildlife volunteer?
- How many animals are in care
- Releasing the ‘big boys’
- Hailey's favourite animals
- How animals end up at a sanctuary
- How to become a wildlife carer
- What to do if you find an animal in need of care
- The Kimberley
- Hailey's favourite spot in Australia
- Wildlife caring in the USA
- Quick adventure questions
