Welcome to Bonorong.
Whether you’ve come across the world or you’re just down the road – welcome to Bonorong!
Bonorong is a Sanctuary for wildlife run by a passionate team of like-minded people. We’re a social enterprise: a little business with a big heart. The skills and funds generated through the Sanctuary allow us to proactively address problems in our surrounding environment and communities.
A visit to Bonorong is a chance to come closer than ever to something wild and fragile. You’ll come face to face with animals that became extinct long ago in other parts of Australia — the same animals we’re working hard to protect now.
By walking through our old wooden gate you’ll become part of something special – everything we do, we do with your help.
From all of us here at Bonorong (four feet, two feet and no feet), we look forward to seeing you soon!

Acknowledgement of Country
Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary acknowledges we are on unceded Mumirimina land.
The people belonging to this part of lutruwita/Tasmania did not survive colonisation.
We extend our respect to the palawa/pakana people (Tasmanian Aboriginal community) their ancestors and elders. We acknowledge the palawa people as the ongoing custodians of lutruwita/Tasmania, and we stand in solidarity with palawa people to protect country, create sanctuary and to sustain native wildlife.
We are deeply grateful to live and work on this country.
Country is a term widely used by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. It refers to the land, waterways, sky country, songlines , people, and animals the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are intrinsically connected to.
As you visit this island please be mindful about the impact you make, and respectfully travel across and experience this beautiful land.
We walk humbly in the footsteps of those that have walked before us and are grateful for their guardianship of the wildlife that we have the honour in caring for, knowing, learning from and rehabilitating.
