Wildlife Health and Conservation Hospital
Wildlife conservation through care and rehabilitation
The Wildlife Health and Conservation Hospital (WHCH) is a centre of excellence in wildlife care and training, serving the communities of south-western and southern Sydney, the Wollondilly, the Southern Highlands and beyond.
Our Sydney wildlife hospital is a dedicated wildlife and teaching hospital staffed by experienced wildlife veterinarians and nurses who work closely with rescue and rehabilitation groups such as WIRES, Sydney Wildlife, other carer groups, the public, and general veterinary practices.
We provide expert veterinary care and rehabilitation to sick, injured, and orphaned wildlife, aiming to release them back into their natural habitats.
Our goals are to alleviate suffering, promote improved standards of care, enhance our understanding of wildlife health threats, and collaborate closely with our community to address these issues.
We provide continuing care to all of our patients - either by consultation or in the case of an emergency we provide immediate care without appointment.
We offer veterinary care by consultation for routine and follow-up care and wildlife emergency services for acute cases during opening hours.
