Welcome

We are twelve years into the 21st Century and our wildlife is in just as much trouble as ever. Habitat destruction, climate change, and a lack of government direction towards wildlife protection issues has seen most species populations plumment to an all time low. Following on from 2012, the year of Bio-diversity, we all need to be concerned about Australia's unique and beautiful wildlife.

Community wildlife groups battle to save injured and orphaned wildlife, while at the same time, government agencies hand out permits over the phone to kill them. Never before in Australian history has there been such an urgent need to protect our remnant native species. It's even more important now in 2013 to protect what we have left, and that's what the Wildlife Protection Association of Australia Inc. does.

The members of the Wildlife Protection Association of Australia Inc. are dedicated and committed to the conservation and protection of our native wildlife. We provide a credibile and effective forum to bring community concerns and wildlife issues to a global stage. As a non-government community-based group, we lobby the Government at all levels to do better with wildlife protection, and to implement nonlethal wildlife management, for perceived wildlife over populations.

With your help and support we will continue to do that. If you join our Association, for a small yearly fee, you can help us to continue our campaigns of community education. A small donation will help us even further, and you can do this from our membership page using PayPal or you could even mail us a cheque.
