Our volunteer Donna treats a wombat with mange using a loooong pole and scoop—allowing medication to be applied safely without stressing the animal. Mange is a serious but treatable condition, and early intervention can save lives. Please report wombats with mange in Victoria to us via our website: https://mangemanagement.org.au/report-a-wombat/ Thank you for helping us help the wombats 💚 | Mange Management - Treating Mange in Wombats

Notified a week ago of a very manged wombat we struggled to find him for a few days but he popped up again under the landowners house When they called this morning to say he is out and about we raced to get there. I had a trap set up overnight but catching them in a net is better and less stressful. He is in pretty bad shape with fissures all over his body and eyes crusted over from sarcoptic mange. He didnt smell of infection which is the biggest threat. I gave him medicine for mange and covere

Another wombat treated for mange early this morning. We suspect it’s Stu, a wombat treated once last year before he disappeared. One dose Bravecto is not enough so it’s starting from scratch again and hopefully we can give him two follow up doses. Lucky for him he has most of the fur on his back but his front legs and torso is covered in thick plaques If you want to support us in helping them please do. It costs us an average of $250 per wombat for treatment. You can donate at www.wombatrescue.c

We were asked out to a farm where a wombat was sleeping in an open shed. When we found him he was curled up in a little ball fast asleep. But he’s not a youngster.. he’s a big boy. Hard to age them when they reach adulthood but judging by his size and scars I would say he’s been around Which begs the question why he is sleeping there with dogs and people around Firstly he has mange. But my suspicion is he lost his home. The creek has flooded and his burrow was either lost or taken by a younger h

The second rescue for today was more positive than the first two We went to the 3rd sighting and just as the sun set the wombat was found. He was lying in the tall grass resting but we managed to get a good dose on him What made my heart sing is how this community (in Jerrabomberra) came together and all care so much and just want him to heal He gave a few growls just to let us know he’s not impressed and he is sporting the usual blue mark on his back but Im confident we got him in time Thank yo

Continued our scouting along the Murrumbidgee river to assess the damage it’s done to our wombat populations after the massive flooding last week In this area though the riverbanks are much wider and gentler sloped so the river didnt push up as high although it was still a good 4m higher than it was tonight which is an enormous amount of water We found 3 wombats grazing and one had early signs of mange so I gave her a direct treatment She is just gorgeous and gave me hope | Wombat Rescue

It’s World Wombat Day on 22 October (and Wombat Wednesday), and this year, we’re asking people to celebrate the day by making a real difference in the lives of wombats. In just four years, reports of mange-affected wombats in Victoria have nearly doubled, from 835 cases in 2022 to 1,620 so far in 2025 (with three months remaining), with each case costing between $80 and $200 on average to treat. Mange is highly contagious in wombat populations. If left untreated, it can spread rapidly and infect
