RSPCA Queensland has the largest and busiest Wildlife Hospital in the state, providing care to over 24,000 native animals every year. There are many factors that impact our native animals: natural disasters such as bushfire and droughts, dog attacks, road accidents and habitat loss. Every year our RSPCA Animal Ambulances attend over 24,000 rescue call outs for sick, injured or orphaned wildlife.
At RSPCA Queensland, we’ve been the state’s leading animal welfare charity for nearly 140 years, dedicated to improving the lives of all animals—domestic, farmed, and native. Every year, we care for over 42,000 animals, relying on the generosity of animal lovers like you to fund 96% of our lifesaving services.
We are also the only charity in Queensland with the power to enforce the Animal Care and Protection Act (2001) and investigate animal welfare concerns through our Inspectorate. Our team is on the front line to protect those who can’t speak for themselves.
