Australian Seabird Rescue

Australian Seabird Rescue was established at Ballina, New South Wales in 1992, following the rescue of a pelican hooked in fishing tackle. Since that time, ASR volunteers have been involved in the rescue and rehabilitation of seabirds and shorebirds, marine turtles, and to date, have rescued over 1000 Australian Pelicans. Learn more...

Australian Seabird Rescue Inc is a coastal wildlife conservation and protection organisation with three branches covering most of the NSW coastline.  Our mission statement is 'to reduce the human impact on the environment'.

We are known for our work rescuing the Australian pelican, but over the years our expertise has expanded to all manner of seabirds, sea turtles and marine mammals.  Our members undertake regular clean up campaigns, removing tonnes of marine debris and domestic waste from our precious waterways.  We are also very active in the community running awareness and education programs to all ages through our street stalls and visits to schools and community groups, and connect with the thousands of visitors to our coastal education centre each year.  Our work has also effected change in legislation, with the introduction of a ban on the mass release of helium ballons in NSW.

We regularly work with many government and non-government agencies including WildlifeLink Foundation, Dept of Fisheries, Dept of Primary Industries, Marine Parks Authority, Department of Environment and Climate Change, WWF, International Fund for Animal Welfare, RSPCA, ORRCA, TruEnergy, and Seaworld.  

We are an incorporated association licensed by the Department of Environment and Climate Change National Parks and Wildlife Service for the rescue and rehabilitation of seabirds, shorebirds, waterbirds and endangered fish species along the entire coastline of NSW, and for sea turtles on the far north coast.

Our survival depends on donations.

We would especially like to thank the businesses in the Northern Rivers who assisted ASR securing a new rescue vehicle. The Tony and Lisette Lewis Foundation who donated the vehicle, Ballina Toyota for supplying the vehicle sooner than we all expected, Cemex (formerly Readymix) for the ongoing fuel sponsorship and Seesaw Signs and Visual Displays in Byron Bay for their help with sign-writing.
