A safe haven for native animals

Our patients recover at our centre after treatment at Wildbase Hospital, they change regularly as they recover and are released back into the wild.

Our resident animals are with us all the time so there is always something to see.

Kererū Taumarunui

Kererū/NZ Wood Pigeon Taumarunui

I flew into a window

Where have I come from?
I was found in Taumarunui in the Ruapehu District

How have the vets helped me?
I was taken to Wildbase Hospital where radiographs showed that I had fractured my keel. My damaged tail feathers were also plucked to encourage the growth of new feathers. I am now here to regain my strength and fitness before release.

I can be found in the Circular Flight Aviary
