Sponsor an Animal
Why become a sponsor?
Trowunna is a sanctuary for everyone. Trowunna has spent the last forty years creating a harmonious place for animals and people alike. We have achieved this through our work in conservation programs for endangered species, rehabilitation of injured and rescued animals and in our continued effort for better conservation education of the general public.
The cost of caring for Trowunna's animals is no small feat and we would love your help!
This is where you can do your part…
For as little as $50 you can sponsor an animal for an entire year, these funds will contribute to the overall care for the animal. The funds your sponsorship provides will go to a range of different expenses including but not limited too. Food, enclosure enrichment, veterinary care and record-keeping. Through your generosity, we will be able to continue our invaluable work with native Tasmanian wildlife.
Sponsoring one of Trowunna’s ambassador animals will not only help all the animals in the sanctuary, but it will also help their counterparts in the wild. Our ambassadors are at the forefront of our interactive tours and allow the public to leave with a much greater connection to our wildlife.
Our Ambassadors send a powerful message about conservation and are integral to our efforts to educate the public about how wonderful Tasmania's wildlife really is!
Tassie Devil
This is devilish little pair consist of brother and sister team Mowunna and Mudeye. This duo of Tasmanian devils are doing their bit to help Trowunna save the Tasmanian devil. The pair helps Trowunna's keepers with their interactive tours that explain what an important part the Tasmanian devil plays in our ecosystem and the challenges they face with the spread of the Tasmanian Devil facial tumour disease in the wild.
Bare Nosed Wombat
This is Rosalie, she is a Bare Nosed Wombat. Rosalie came to Trowunna as an orphan who's mother had been hit by a car.
Rosalie assists Trowunna's keepers everyday to create a better understanding about wombats and the challenges they face in the wild.
One of the biggest challenges is road death to adult wombats leaving their joeys without a mum. Would you like to help Rosalie help all wombats with a 12 month sponsorship?
Spotted Tailed Quoll
This is Albus, a male Spotted Tailed Quoll. Albus is one of Kaoota's siblings, Kaoota was also an ambassador animal but has now retired to continue her valuable work in our conservation program.
Albus has been doing his part by helping Trowunna's keepers educate the public about what a fantastic species the Spotted Tailed Quoll is as Australia's largest marsupial predator. Would you like to help Albus educate people about Spotted Tailed Quolls with an annual sponsorship?
Ambassador animal news update!
Exciting News! Two of our Ambassador animals have left our care. Weneeki the Bare nosed wombat has been released back to the wild after completing her rehabilitation as an orphaned wombat and had started displaying behaviors that showed she was ready to make her own way in the world. Our other success story is Koota the Spotted tailed quoll, Koota was identified as a prime candidate to be released back to the wild to help augment and re-enforce existing wild populations. Our former Tasmanian devil ambassador Minah has now retired to to do her part in Sanctuary’s breeding program.
Trowunna would like to extend a big thank you all of our sponsors that have helped us to reach these significant achievements. Although these may seem like small things, these milestones will have far reach impacts for the continuation of these species in the wild, and we couldn’t have done it without your help!!
