Our Mission
The Hills Wildlife Sanctuary is dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and preservation of native Australian wildlife. We strive to become Sydney’s hub for biodiversity conservation, education, and threatened species recovery.

Protecting Wildlife.
Restoring Nature.
Inspiring Conservation.
The Hills Wildlife Sanctuary is a not-for-profit wildlife conservation organisation founded in 1977. The sanctuary is dedicated to protecting Australia’s native wildlife and raising awareness for the conservation of all native species.
Set across 35 acres of pristine natural bushland adjoining Berowra Valley National Park in Sydney’s north-west, we rescue and rehabilitate injured, orphaned and displaced wildlife, provide lifelong sanctuary for animals unable to return to the wild, and deliver conservation programs that create lasting outcomes for threatened species.
OUR MISSION:
-
Rescue & Rehabilitate - Give injured, orphaned and displaced wildlife the expert care they need to recover and return to the wild through our state-of-the-art facilities and on-site Wildlife Hospital.
-
Breed & Re-wild - Manage breeding and re-wilding programs for some of Australia’s most endangered species in collaboration with other leading institutions.
-
Protect Local Species - Support the conservation of endangered species endemic to the Hills and north-west Sydney.
-
Research & Collaborate - Work with universities, conservation organisations and wildlife experts to advance wildlife conservation.
-
Educate & Inspire - Connect people with wildlife and inspire the next generation of conservationists.
Together, we’re working to secure the future for Australian native wildlife.
