Phumba arrived at Big Ears in 2016. She had been re-homed by another rescue agency and the new home hadn’t worked out. She came here and we have loved her grumpy facial expressions. She has settled down and is very comfortable at the sanctuary in her outdoor paddock.
Sponsorship of Phumba is $50.00 per year and goes towards her vaccinations, vet checks and parasite control.

Once matched she will live with her partner in an outside pen.

Argo the Galah
Argo the Galah
Argo the Galah came to live at Big ears after his human owner died and the remainder of his family did not wish to care for him. Originally we were told that he was ‘vicious’, and he was named Agro. However, Argo is sweet and loves a pat and a sing and dance. He loves to blow kisses as well as whistle.
While we don’t condone birds in captivity, it’s all Argo has ever known as he was captured when he was young and would now no longer survive in the wild. Galah’s can live up to forty years in the wild.
Sponsorship of Argo is $100.00 and goes toward his parasite treatments and enrichment toys.

Baby Jane can be sponsored for $50.00 per year which goes towards her vet checks, vaccinations and parasite treatments.
