Wildhaven is a property dedicated to caring for the beautiful native wildlife of Australia. The animals roam free and are protected by Stella and Alan Reid, who care so deeply for the wildlife that they changed their lifestyle and in return, these beautiful animals changed them forever. "There is nothing more delightful than to scoop up a wild joey in your arms and smell the wind and eucalyptus in the coats of the gentle Kangaroo or the deep-earth smell of tiny wallabies. It is wonderful to see the trust in their eyes and the gradual realisation that you mean them no harm" (Stella Reid) Wildhaven was completely destroyed on 7th February 2009. Tragically, the fire took all the wildlife in care as well as domestic pets and all buildings. We are rebuilding and will continue our work with the wildlife. Wildhaven has now become a trust and tax deductible donations can be made to help the offset of costs running the shelter. Please see details on the contact page. (Our ABN is 77 950 607 849) Please take the time to experience a little of what Wildhaven does by looking through the photos - all of which were taken by Stella. Generous friends have returned some pre fire images to us so you may enjoy some earlier days at Wildhaven. |
