Native Animals

Lesley Knight is a member of the Native Animal Network Association (N.A.N.A.), which focuses on saving injured native wildlife and caring for them until they can be released into the wild.

Often this involves raising young animals who lost their parents, which can take years of feeding by hand. When they have grown big enough, Parkview functions as a release property.

Kangaroos or Wallabies are put into a large compound first so they can form a mob together. When it's time, their compounds are opened and away they go.

Wallabies, Wombats and Kangaroos seem to like the surrounding parklands of Parkview. Often when walking you see mobs which have stayed on the property because there is plenty of protection and food.

You can enjoy the company of our native neighbours all around Parkview.
Just remember not to share your lunch with them!
