This is from a post from Minton Farm Animal Rescue Centre found on another platform. Please keep a look out.
“Another fledgling sulphur crest has arrived today with spinal injuries. We are currently being inundated with heat stressed wildlife. Birds and marsupials will throw out their babies when stressed so we are seeing juveniles thrown from nests and they sustain spinal injuries causing their legs to be paralyzed. Large parrot species, rosellas, magpies and lorikeets are suffering badly. Possums are going to ground under verandas in shopping centres trying to escape the heat. We are advising people to have sprinklers on under trees to cool koalas, possums and birds and putting out trays of water for them to drink and stand in. Thankyou. Bev Langley.”


The sprinklers under cool trees is a good idea
