Love Whales – Seals – Dolphins – Dugongs? Passionate about marine wildlife and interested to become part of a dedicated network of trained marine mammal emergency first responders? Then ORRCA is the place for you!
‘Mid South Coast’ is one of ORRCA’s 14 ‘pods’ (rescue teams) along the East Coast of Australia. Our local team responds to incidents between Gerroa/Jervis Bay and Kioloa. Quite a large area so we’re always keen for more people to join our team!
No experience necessary; everyone is welcome to join!
Once you’ve on-boarded in one of our full-day Rescue Training Workshops, you’ll be able to:
– connect with a large group of like-minded ocean lovers and conservationists
– work alongside experienced ORRCA whale, seal, dolphin and dugong rescuers
– be skilled and ready to respond to real-life marine mammals incidents
– confidently educate members of the public and advocate for our marine life
– make a meaningful difference to vulnerable and endangered ocean species
ORRCA is 100% volunteer based not for profit, and we’re the only volunteer wildlife organisation licensed to interact with marine mammals.
