Battle to save Australian wildlife as bushfires rage - SABC News - Breaking news, special reports, world, business, sport coverage of all South African current events. Africa's news leader.

As Australia battles wildfires that have razed more than 4 million hectares across five states, volunteers are trying to save wild animals caught in the inferno.

Tracy Burgess, a volunteer at Wildlife Information, Rescue and Education Services , said it was very concerning that rescuers were not receiving as many animal patients as they would expect. The possum being looked after by Burgess was found in the rural town of Clarence in the World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains region, around 100 kilometers west of Sydney.

WIRES and other groups usually discourage people from feeding wild animals but wildfires have prompted them to change that advice to encourage people to provide much-needed food and water.

This is a real battle now. FYI a list of the organisations involved wildlife Australia fires
