🌿🦉 CCWA TOUR IN COUNTRY – A BEHIND-THE-SCENES LOOK AT FAWNA! 🦘💚
From a former mine site to a future for wildlife!
FAWNA was delighted to welcome visitors as part of the Conservation Council of Western Australia’s (CCWA) Tour in Country, hosted in partnership with the Busselton/Dunsborough Environment Centre.
Our guests enjoyed a behind-the-scenes look at FAWNA’s Possum Finishing School and Flight Academy in Ludlow, discovering how a former mineral sands mining site is being transformed into a thriving sanctuary for wildlife rehabilitation, research and conservation.
🌱 From tiny possums preparing for life back in the wild to the specialised facilities helping injured and displaced wildlife recover, the tour showcased what passionate volunteers, community partnerships and a shared commitment to conservation can achieve.
🦜 Visitors also had the opportunity to meet some of our remarkable wildlife and learn about the challenges involved in giving native animals a second chance.
💚 One of the most important messages of the day? Conservation isn’t just about protecting what remains — it’s also about restoring what has been lost.
The transformation taking place at Ludlow is a wonderful example of how previously disturbed land can find a new purpose, creating lasting benefits for biodiversity and future generations.
A huge thank you to CCWA, the Busselton/Dunsborough Environment Centre, Rhonda, Mike and Tom from @meet.theanimals our wonderful FAWNA volunteers and everyone who joined us to learn more about our work.
Together, we’re turning yesterday’s mine site into tomorrow’s wildlife sanctuary. 🌏💚

Saving flightless black swan Cygnets… all in a days work for FAWNA volunteer Izzy!
If you love wildlife and want to help out send us a message!
🦢 UGLY DUCKLINGS NEED YOUR HELP! 🖤
These fluffy Black Swan cygnets may look vulnerable, but with our community’s help, they have a better chance of surviving. ❤️
As wetlands across the South West begin to dry out, adult swans may move on in search of food and water, sometimes leaving their young behind.
🚨 PLEASE KEEP WATCH!
If you see a lone cygnet wandering on foot, stranded away from water, or out in the ocean, it may need urgent assistance.
📞 Call FAWNA’s Wildlife Emergency Hotline: 0438 526 660
💚 Together, we can help these little cygnets grow into beautiful Black Swans!

Meet one of our tiny patients — a beautiful young female phascogale found alone, weighing just 32 grams.
Phascogales are small, tree-climbing native marsupials with bright eyes, delicate fingers and a distinctive brush-tipped tail. They are nocturnal hunters, feeding mainly on insects, and rely on healthy bushland with tree hollows for shelter and nesting.
At only 32 grams, this little girl was far too young to be on her own. She is now receiving the specialised care she needs to grow strong, develop her natural skills and, when ready, return to the bush where she belongs.
If you find a small native animal alone, injured or in danger, please keep it warm, quiet and safe — and call a licensed wildlife rescue group for advice. Every little life matters. 💚 If you Live in WAs Southwest you might like to volunteer with our community- visit www.fawna.com.au
