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.

Baby Jane
Baby Jane
Baby Jane was caught by a cat at around Easter 2019 and raised from a baby by her family. In July as she grew larger and as her needs increased she was surrendered to live at Big Ears. She is the friendliest little bush bun and loves time with people, having pats and kisses.
Baby Jane can be sponsored for $50.00 per year which goes towards her vet checks, vaccinations and parasite treatments.
Adam the goat arrived at Big Ears on the 19th October 2018. He had been dumped in the bush down a forestry track in north west Tasmania. His kind rescuer called him Adam and contacted us for his relocation.
Sponsorship of Adam is $100.00 per year which will go towards his health checks, nail trims and regular worming.

Spirit
Spirit
In 2014 we rescued six rabbits from Legana. Three of the girls were pregnant and had sixteen babies between them at Big Ears. Spirit was one of those babies.
He is a big boy now and although he has had surgery on his 2nd eyelids he is a happy healthy bun
Sponsorship is $50.00 per year which goes towards his vet checks, vaccinations and parasite control.
This lady is one of the 30 rabbits rescued from a terrible neglect situation in Hobart in mid January 2015. For more on his story please visit our rabbit rescue tab.
Maria Rita was found on the side of the road on a cold Monday night at the beginning of September 2018. The police officer that found her thought it might just be a matter of putting her back over the fence with her flock. When he shone his torch over the fence there was no flock in sight and no nearby farm house. He called Big Ears and we picked her up and started her on the bottle.
She has been an absolute pleasure and one of the healthiest lambs we have had the pleasure to raise. She needs to have a surgical removal of her tail as it is much more humane than banding the tail.
Sponsorship of Maria Rita is $100.00 per year which goes towards her vaccinations, health checks and parasite control.
