Duck-A-Roo Wildlife Sanctuary

Duck-A-Roo Wildlife Sanctuary G'day mates! SA's south east's got a sanctuary where wildlife's in charge (and we're fine with that). We rescue, rehab, and give critters a second chance.

Come meet our furry mob! Small fee, big love – bring your heart 🐨❤️😂" Duck A Roo Wildlife Rescue is a rescue centre and sanctuary primarily caring for our Australian Native Wildlife that have been injured or orphaned. It is ran by Ducky (Narelle) and Allan Marshall who have been caring for native wildlife since 2005. Our aim is to rehabilitate and release where we can, however, not all animals can

go back to the wild, therefore we provide a safe home full of love and care for the animals that fall into this category for the rest of their lives.

"Fair dinkum, this little bush chook's life was as rough as galah's feathers! Came in with a busted leg, and despite the sanctuary's best efforts, it was a lost cause. Had to say G'day to the big bird farm in the sky. Still, the sanctuary's got a ripper of a team lookin' after all the critters, so we're hopin' for more Aussie wildlife success stories!"

This is magical. A baby Nankeen kestrel that came into care in November and has grown into a beautiful bird and successfully released. It comes home several times a day to be “hand fed”. Here are some photos of when I got it and what it looks like now. I will post a slo-mo video of it coming to feed out of my hand.

RIP guardian Emma 🥰

For those that have visited Duck-a-roo wildlife sanctuary , you would have certainly been greeted by our very smiley, happy Emma, the maremma. She was getting extremely old and unfortunately has grown wings and crossed the rainbow 🌈 bridge.
Thanks Emma for being an easy and awesome dog and mostly for the hard work you continuously did to keep our property safe and crime free.
She will be very much missed 🥰

This video shows a boo book owl eating a mouse. Don’t watch it if you will be offended.

This boo book owl came in a couple of weeks ago, with an eye injury. It couldn’t open its eye at all. As you can see, the eye is healing and it is feeding well. It certainly likes the fresh mice I catch daily for it. It eats very delicately for a bird of prey.

I love the boo books, so gentle and calm This bird is progressing well and will hopefully be able to be released soon
