How does Chordata & Ko support wildlife and their habitat?

Chordata & Ko. Wildlife Shelter are an Australian wildlife rescue and rehabilitation shelter that helps sick, injured and/or orphaned native wildlife. With over 10 years experience and a principle of “quality, over quantity”. We work in unison with the community engaging with locals and stakeholders regularly for education and philanthropy!

How our project funding supported Chordata & Ko. Wildlife Shelter

We are happy to see that our project funding for Kody was used for a new reptile enclosure.

“Once again, thank you so much for spotlighting Chordata & Ko. Wildlife Shelter and supporting us always! With the money granted to us, we were able to set up a new reptile enclosure to assist in rehabilitating any sick and/or injured native reptiles!

We can't thank you enough for the support! This enclosure has been on our to-do list for quite some time, and with your grant we were able to purchase ceramic heaters, decor items, substrate, lighting, hides and food/water bowls!”

There are many ways to help our wildlife and we get lots of calls a week with concerned Members of Public wanting to help. You can do this by reporting injured and orphaned wildlife or donating funds so that we can continue our programs and provide ongoing support to wildlife shelters.

What can you do to help?

What advice would you give the public?

Dont be afraid to ask questions; if you dont know, always ask. Humility is a beautiful trait.
