HONOURING DEDICATION TO WILDLIFE
Our founder, Craig Webb, was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) in 2025 for his outstanding contribution to wildlife conservation.
This honour reflects what we’ve always known — Craig’s passion and tireless work with Tasmania’s birds of prey have made a real and lasting impact. We’re incredibly proud and grateful for the heart he brings to the Refuge every day.

RESCUE AND REHABILITATION
Report Raptors in Need
Every year, the Raptor Refuge responds to calls from across Tasmania to rescue injured and orphaned birds of prey. Our mission begins the moment someone picks up the phone — and continues with expert care, dedicated facilities, and hope for a second chance at freedom.
If you’ve found an injured, dead or distressed raptor, call our Raptor Hotline. Our team is ready to help! If you’d like a free hotline sticker please email us at info@raptorrefuge.com.au
