HELP fundraise for
Tasmania's wildlife
Welcome to Wild Ride!
Wild Ride is Bonorong’s new fundraising campaign where we encourage supporters to do a ‘Wild Ride’ to raise money for wildlife in our care. The funds raised will help run Bonorong’s rescue, critical care hospital, and rehabilitation animal care services.
Ride a bicycle, a scooter, a skateboard, or roller skate, hop on a pogo stick, even wear a costume while you’re doing your Wild Ride! You create your very own Wild Ride with a team or as an individual, with your work mates, friends, or family. Anyone can take part – groups, businesses, and organisations.
How Can I Get Involved?
Want to become a Wild Rider? You can register as an individual, a team, a business or as an organisation. Simply register using the button below, then start planning for your Wild Ride and raising money. You can provide updates and share your progress with your followers as you go!
And if you can’t do your own Wild Ride, there are plenty of other ways to help support animals – you can sponsor a Wild Rider, donate directly or become a Corporate Partner.

Are you and your family travelling around Tasmania these school holidays?? 🚘
Please be safe on our roads and remember to slow down for wildlife! Increased traffic on the roads around these times increases the risk of car strikes for our wild critters! 🐾💚
Please be mindful on the roads, and if you do find injured or orphaned animals on your travels, remember that you can call Bonorong`s 24/7 Wildlife Rescue Service any time of the day or night on 0447 264 625. ☎️

Happy #EarthDay2025! 🌏
Every year on April 22nd, we celebrate Earth Day to honour our incredible planet and reflect on why it’s so vital to protect it - for ourselves, future generations, and all the creatures we share it with. 💚
There are so many ways each of us can make a positive difference for the environment, and in doing so, support the amazing wildlife that depends on it - like these precious Tawny Frogmouths! 🐦
Need some inspiration? Here are a few simple ways you can help:
🌱 Support local conservation organisations - Donate, volunteer, or simply spread the word about groups working to protect Tasmania’s native species and habitats.
♻️ Reduce waste and recycle properly - Less waste means less pollution in our forests, rivers, and oceans - essential for wildlife survival. Make sure you are disposing of waste properly to avoid damaging the environment and its wildlife.
🚘Slow down when driving from dusk to dawn - Reduce the likelihood of roadkill incidents by taking extra care when driving after dark.
🛒 Choose eco-friendly and local products - Support businesses that prioritise sustainability and avoid products that harm native ecosystems.
