Who we are. Inaugural members include several people with extensive knowledge and experience in wildcare and rescue, committed, and passionate about roadkill mitigation.   Training will be provided to ensure all members have the necessary accreditation required for animal care and rescue and the other activities involved in our roadkill mitigation program.

Our group is based in George Town / Low Head and its volunteering activity will spread over regions as far as Launceston and towns east and west of the Tamar.  We are working with the rescue teams of West Tamar and the Meander Valley who are our strategic partners.
