Sarah Morrison

Hello to my future employers, my name is Sarah.

I have vast experience caring for domestic and wildlife animals.

Domestic animals: I have experience with ownership, training, rescuing, and rehabilitation of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rats, mice, goats, cows, fish, and many species of birds.

Wildlife: I have gained most of my knowledge by working as a volunteer with the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary for over two years.

In this position, I have cared for many species.

The main animals I have had in my care are Greater Gliders, Feather-Tailed Gliders, Sugar Gliders, Yellow-Bellied Gliders, bilbies, Red-Necked Wallabies, Tamar Wallabies, Cape Barren Geese, echidnas, and Spinifex Hopping Mice.

Throughout this position, I have developed not only my love for all species of animals, but especially for small, native Australian mammals.

I have gained knowledge on their care, including those of their husbandry requirements.

I have experience in capture and restraint, weighing, feeding, and dietary needs through preparation, cleaning, and sanitization per species.

I have basic knowledge of veterinary care from my experience, as well as my TAFE course in Cert 3 Captive Animals, and I also recognize enclosure security as a very important measure.
