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.

I was found on the ground unable to fly.

Where have I come from?

Waikanae

What are the vets doing to help me?

The vets found I sustained a fractured radius in my right wing. My wing has healed, I'm now here to rebuild strength and fitness, and grow back important flight feathers.
