Dear,
Matty, a joey of just a few months old, has lost his entire family in horrendous wildfires sweeping parts of Australia. |

His feet, hands, and belly were badly burnt. He is the sole survivor of a troop of roughly 80 kangaroos who were trapped and burnt to death in the blazes currently obliterating parts of the country.
Matty is just one example of the thousands of wild animals left injured, homeless, and traumatized as Australia’s fire season has begun, fuelled by the warmest winter on record and an unseasonably warm, dry spring.
Fires have destroyed thousands of acres of land and homes along the west and east coasts of the country, people have been evacuated, and thousands of wild animals have had their homes destroyed. |
|
Orphaned, injured and alone, these animals are counting on you today. |
|
Thousands of kangaroos, joeys, owls, magpies, and reptiles like bobtail lizards are injured and in need of critical life-saving treatment.
Please help them now! |
|
Firefighters and law enforcement officials have their hands full trying to evacuate people to safety. Kind policemen saved Matty from the flames, but as you can imagine animals are often not the priority when human lives are at stake. |

“The damage out here is shocking. So much lost. The heat is mad without the temperature [of] the day on top. Think of the people that [sic] have lost everything. The animals that have lost [their] lives and the animals still out there in pain.” - Express Wildlife Rescue and Rehab. |
|
Our partners are on the ground right now, pulling survivors from the flames and providing critical treatment to animals burnt, injured, and displaced by Australia’s devastating wildfires.
They desperately need YOUR support. |
|
Tragically, helpless wild animals, including infants, have been terribly injured and traumatized in the disaster. Some have been horrifically burnt after becoming trapped amid the blaze; others have been severely damaged through smoke inhalation.
We are working with courageous organizations on the ground in Western Australia, including Express Wildlife Rescue and Rehab in Henley Brook. Their teams are racing into fire zones to save and evacuate animals and treat as many as they can. |
|
They are also setting up food and water stations on the ground for parched, starving animals they cannot reach and whose habitats have been entirely destroyed.
They are critically low on supplies as the number of animals in need continues to soar, and right now, are in urgent need of essential veterinary supplies and equipment, which you have the power to help us provide. |
|
Australia’s fires are a tragedy for animals who cannot flee like people can and who, in times of disaster, are often overlooked.
Only with your support right now can we race to the aid of Australia’s trapped, injured, burnt animals.
Please help NOW! |

As a loyal supporter of our work, you know that we are ALWAYS there for animals in their darkest hour… |
|
Animal rescue teams are braving the flames to rescue as many helpless wild animals as they can.
They are desperate for food for the animals, transport crates, and funds for crucial veterinary care. |
|
The number of animals in need continues to climb, and our partners cannot rescue more without the resources to do so.
The survivors, covered with burns or with severe respiratory complications due to smoke inhalation, need emergency veterinary care and long-term rehabilitation.
These animals have fought relentlessly to survive… we must honor their battles and will to live by doing everything we possibly can to support their recovery… |

P.S. This is only the start of “wildfire season” - it has begun early and is expected to be one of the worst in Australia’s history. Many wild animals are already in need of emergency care, and many more are sure to need it. The more we can raise, the more animals we can save. But, without your support, we cannot provide the life-saving veterinary care and resources that Australia’s suffering wild animals DESPERATELY need right now. Please donate as generously as you can right now. |
