How your donations are helping our most vulnerable wildlife

While the fires may have eased in south-east Queensland, the work is ongoing for wildlife carers and their charges. Here’s how your donated funds are helping.

Fundraising

Australian Geographic Bushfire Support

Money from the fundraiser will be dispersed to support wildlife rescue and rehabilitation, habitat restoration and communities devastated by the fires.

Fundraising

Help save the glossy-black cockatoo

Glossy black-cockatoos face a tough future. Listed as vulnerable in NSW, the species has specialist dietary and nesting needs, eating only the cones of a few species of she-oak and nesting exclusively in the hollows of old-growth gums. Habitat loss has reduced both resources.
