Set up by Tracey and Peter Wilson in 2007, Mosswood takes in around 500 animals a year, including koalas, echidnas, raptors, seabirds, owls and penguins.

Mosswood is a long-time partner of IFAW who helped to set up its dedicated onsite veterinary clinic where animals receive expert treatment from an incredible voluntary vet. The animals undergo rehabilitation and recovery in dedicated facilities before being released back to the wild.

Mosswood relies completely on hardworking, honest, reliable volunteers to assist with its day to day running and are always in need of more.

The problems we face are growing larger and more complex everyday. More online trafficking. More ocean noise. More powerful storms. We’ve been around for fifty years, but we know our solutions can’t stay the same. We have to be nimble, curious, and open to new partners. In short, we have to think, and act, differently.

When euthanasia seemed like the only option for stranded marine mammals, we found another way. We developed new technology to safely release them back into the ocean. When people in Bali were getting sick after natural disasters, we found the source: unvaccinated dogs. Now, we are making sure that island dogs get their rabies vaccines. And when we wanted to stop whale hunting in Japan, we called up the very last entity you could imagine: the Icelandic Tourism Board.

If you are interested in either of these positions, please email your CV and cover letter to Josey Sharrad, Wildlife Campaigns Manager at IFAW on jsharrad@ifaw.org or directly to mosswoodwildlife@gmail.com
