Looking for a simple DIY project that can make a real difference for wildlife 💚

Making a possum drey is an easy and rewarding way to help local Ringtail Possums, especially as tree hollows become harder to find in our urban areas. A drey gives possums a safe place to rest, shelter from the weather and raise their young.

All you need are two wire hanging baskets with coconut fibre liners, and some strong ties or wire. Once assembled, dreys can be placed in a suitable tree at home for visiting possums or donated to WIRES carers who care for possums in rehabilitation.

If you ever see a possum or joey in need of help, please contact WIRES on 1300 094 737 so our volunteers can assist.

Our resident wild big boy who comes every evening for a drink from the bird bath. It was empty and he was not empressed.

Joeys spend months tucked safely in a pouch …until mum steps too close to a road. 💔

Please slow down, especially at dusk. One small moment of care can save two lives. 🦘
