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?

Whanganui

What are the vets doing to help me?

I sustained blunt force trauma to the chest, causing sternal and clavicular fractures. The vets have given me surgery, fluid therapy and lots of cage rest.
