Fund-raising for Wellington Bird Rehabilitation Trust

Wellington Bird Rehabilitation Trust specialises in the care of waterfowl, but also takes in all kinds of native and non-native birds.

What does WBRT Do?

- Many of the rescued birds brought to WBRT are injured and require special care

- WBRT looks after and raises a large number of orphaned ducklings

- WBRT is part of the captive breeding program for the Brown Teal/Pateke.

There are only abour 2500 Pateke left in New Zealand, and WBRT's efforts have meant that eighteen ducklings have been successfully released back into the wild!

Over 1000 birds a year are helped by WBRT.

Help us help WBRT! Please donate if you can, but there are other ways to help!

You Can:

* Volunteer

* Save newspaper, shredded paper, and old towels to donate

* keep an eye out for fruit and vegetables that may be discarded by businesses and could be donated instead - ducks love veges and fruit!

* Adopt a bird
