How does Winki Wildlife Shelter support wildlife and their habitat?
Winki Wildlife Shelter provides exceptional care for sick, injured, and orphaned wildlife across the Surf Coast and Geelong areas. Our dedicated team of passionate volunteers ensures every animal, no matter how small, receives the best treatment, love, and support.

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 provide ongoing support to wildlife shelters.
