Pelican and Seabird Rescue
Our Pelicans and Seabirds are magnificent. Their behaviour is part of the natural fabric to our marine habitat bringing nutrients and keeping the ecological balance. Unfortunately, many of our precious native birds who are otherwise healthy end up losing their life unnecessarily because of entanglements from fishing tackle, weed matting, disposal masks, socks and a variety of objects. Worse yet, some are even intentionally abused by humans.
Our local Pelican and Seabird Rescue specialise in rescuing injured native birds that can still fly.
Hammy Forrest president of the Pelican and Seabird Rescue joined 4ZZZ’s Eliot Rifkin back in 2018 to chat about their organisation, living with wildlife & tips on preserving their environments.
for a deep dive…
You can volunteer or follow Pelican and Seabird Rescue on Facebook or email Nat saveme@pelicanandseabirdrescue.org.au . If you see an injured bird that can still fly and in strife... please call for help, Pelican and Seabird Rescue 0404 118 301 or RSPCA 1300 264 625.
Here are some fun facts for pelicans as well as for seagulls. Did you know people confuse our local seagull (known as the silver gull) with the herring gull, also known as 'silver gull' in many European languages?
To help you identify an injured bird or just appreciate seabirds... here is a list of all the seabirds found in Australia, click here.
