TARC is a non-profit enterprise and has a Rehabilitation Permit allowing us to receive injured, orphaned and rescued native wildlife. This is a service we very proudly offer to the community free of charge and have done for over 25 years now. The team at TARC donates time and resources to the care of compromised native wildlife, with a goal of positive welfare outcomes and post rehabilitation successful wild release back into their natural environment. Although small, TARC is overwhelmed at times with rescued wildlife and is continually seeking support funds for its operations and to build a new medical Centre in the future. TARC admits well over 400 patients a year – and peak season is storm season, when winds and rains can wreak havoc on native birdlife. It also supports local carer networks with supplies to assist rescued wildlife.
