VIC Wildlife Emergency Support Network EOI

The Wildlife Emergency Support Network (WESN) is a partnership for the targeted recruitment, training, accreditation and pre deployment coordination of veterinary services and wildlife rehabilitator or rescue volunteers, who can assist DEECA in undertaking response activities when requested.

This WESN approach seeks individuals from across the wildlife welfare sector including Zoos Victoria, RSPCA Victoria, Australian Veterinary Association (AVA), other veterinarians, veterinary nurses, Wildlife Victoria and wildlife rehabilitators and rescuers to participate in training and accreditation for possible deployment.
