Wildlife Conservation
Taronga doesn’t just care for wildlife at our two Zoos, we’re also a part of vital Recovery, Research, Breeding and Rehabilitation programs. So, what’s the difference? And what does this all mean?
Rehabilitation
Many animals are rehabilitated in Taronga’s Wildlife Hospitals. These animals are brought in sick or injured, and cared for and treated to hopefully be released back into the wild.
