Partnering with the RSPCA and Local Rescuers

Palms Vets–Hermit Park is dedicated to providing compassionate wildlife rescue in Townsville. We offer emergency care and rehabilitation for injured, sick, and orphaned animals. Our staff work closely with the RSPCA and rescue organisations to ensure native wildlife receives the medical attention they need before being released back into their natural habitat.


At Palms Vets–Hermit Park, we provide treatments for a variety of species, including birds, marsupials, reptiles, and small mammals. From initial assessment to recovery, we focus on minimising stress and supporting each animal’s rehabilitation journey.
