This little snake had no chance of escaping a sticky trap on their own. By the time they reached us, they were exhausted and terrified. Thankfully, our rehab team was able to free them and begin the healing process. 🐍💚 Sticky traps hurt far more than what they’re meant to catch—and wildlife pays the price. 👉 𝗣𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺. 👉 𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝗱 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝘂𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝘂𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗰𝘂𝗲𝘀 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀, 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝗵

To no surprise, the crews work doesn’t stop while they’re on land! Before every mission, our Auckland Rescue Helicopter crew completes a comprehensive pre-flight safety check - inspecting everything from rotor blades, fuel systems, emergency equipment and more to ensure the aircraft is 100% mission ready. #AucklandRescue | Westpac Rescue - Auckland
