VOLUNTEER WITH WOOLLYBUTT WILDLIFE RESCUE
Be There When Wildlife Has No One Else
Every day in the Top End, native animals are hit by cars, displaced by storms, orphaned, injured, or left behind with no one to help them.
When that happens, Woollybutt Wildlife Rescue Inc steps in — but we can’t do it alone.
Behind every rescue is a volunteer.
Behind every recovery is someone who chose to care.
Volunteering with Woollybutt isn’t just giving your time — it’s being a lifeline for an animal on its worst day.
Why Volunteering Changes Lives (Including Yours)
There is something deeply powerful about helping a wild animal when it is scared, hurt or alone.
As a Woollybutt volunteer, you may:
- Hold a tiny joey who has lost its mum
- Transport an injured bird to safety
- Help answer the call that saves a life
- Support a carer who is exhausted but determined
- Watch an animal recover and return to the wild
These moments stay with you.
They remind you why compassion matters, why community matters, and why wildlife needs people who care enough to act.
Volunteering is emotional, challenging and incredibly rewarding — and once you’ve helped save a life, it’s hard to imagine not doing it again.
