Kanyana Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre
A few weeks ago I was asked if I could help out the Kanyana Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre in Western Australia by creating a short film for them.
Having the opportunity to spend time with some of Australia's most endangered species, I jumped at the chance.
The Centre was started about 25 years ago by an inspirational lady called June, who you will see in this film. June set-up the first Kanyana Rehabilitation Centre in her home. Over-the-years it gradually took over with sick and injured animals being cared for by her and volunteers using whatever resources were available.
That all changed in 2004 when Kanyana found a new home deep in the Perth Hills in Lesmurdie and perfect for rehabilitating Australian animals. What is now the permanent Kanyana Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre has to be seen to be believed.
It is an extraordinary place run by extraordinary people whose dedication to animal welfare is breathtaking.
What started out as a project in the back of June's home, is now one of the largest animal welfare centres in the country.
This video was created to show some of the development that has gone on since Kanyana moved to its new home and gives a glimpse of what these committed people do for the wildlife they care for.
I left Kanyana very humbled. Even though I worked for two years at the RSPCA, a visit to Kanyana leaves you feeling like we all need to pitch-in to help out the animals who so desperately need our help.
I would urge you all to visit them at 120 Gilchrist Rd, Lesmurdie, Western Australia, or by going to their website at:
And if you do go along and are lucky enough to meet June, say hello. She's one of those people who is a living, breathing, hero in our community, as are all those who work as volunteers in animal welfare.
I hope you enjoy this short film and that it inspires you to visit the Kanyana Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre.

The Kanyana Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre is a not-for-profit organisation located in Lesmurdie, run by volunteers dedicated to wildlife conservation.
Volunteers care for sick, injured, orphaned and displaced wildlife, run a threatened species breeding programme and educate schools and the community on wildlife conservation.
Kanyana receives no government funding and relies on the public for donations of goods and money to keep the doors open. They also run yearly fundraising campaigns and monthly public tours where you can get up close and personal with some furry critters.

the WA bilby breeding program
Greater Bilbys (Macrotis lagotis) are threatened fauna in Australia. Because of a large number of threats including habitat loss and feral predation by cats and foxes, a wonderful captive breeding program is run at Kanyana Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre in Lesmurdie, Western Australia to increase population size and stability.
The Lesser Bilby is already extinct (since the 1950s) so the Greater Bilby is the only species left on Planet Earth !! This project helps conserve threatened species and improve biodiversity in Western Australia by preventing extinction of the beautiful bilbys !! :)
