| The amount of time and resources spent caring for wildlife is tricky to quantify. Its also challenging to scientifically evaluate "best practice" hand-raising. Honours student Stephanie Glasby is hoping to develop a framework that will ultimately fill some gaps in our current knowledge. |
Honours student Stephanie Glasby needs your help. She is looking at how much time and resources veterinarians devote to caring for orphaned marsupials. She's also looking at which marsupial hand-raising practices are believed to be the most important in successfully hand-raising young.

All you have to do to help is answer a survey from the comfort of your practice/loungeroom/aviary or wherever you happen to be at the time.
Participation will greatly aid the development of a framework for scientific evaluation of marsupial hand-raising protocols.
