Who To Call If You Injure Wildlife In A Car Accident – RACV
So many of Australia’s unique wildlife are killed or injured on our roads each year. A rapid response from the driver/passenger could mean life or death to the animal who has been hit. But who to call when there are 3 Wildlife rescue and rehabilitation groups in Victoria. Choosing from 3 under pressure is difficult.
So luckily RACV has this amazing program where if you just ring their number they will automatically transfer you through to your nearest wildlife carer to the accident location anywhere in Victoria. Link to RACV Wildlife Connect.
Too easy. 1 number to remember. 13 11 11.
Plug this number in to your mobile phone right now so you are ready to respond.
