A wildlife rescue organisation has expanded in south-east Queensland.

Bat Rescue Inc. is a self-funded volunteer organisation whose members are permitted under the Environment Protection Agency (EPA) to care for sick, injured and orphaned wildlife.

Bat Rescue Inc. has been based on the Sunshine Coast for 5 years but it has now established branches in Brisbane and the Gold Coast and has a new website.

Bat Rescue Inc. is dedicated to:

  • Providing education and information to the general public
  • Active conservation of bats and their habitat
  • The promotion of bats as an important part of our ecology
  • The rehabilitation and release of bats back to the wild

For more information about the poultry shed grant scheme and other activities, contact Wildlife Queensland by email or call +61 7 3221 0194.
