ORRCA
The Organisation for the Rescue and Research of Cetaceans in Australia.
Australia is a country familiar with whale strandings.
ORRCA works with the New South Wales Department of Environment and Climate Change and other government agencies at these events.
Effective rescue procedures took quite a long while to perfect. Even by the mid 1980s few animals could be saved. However Australia now has a leading role in the development of whale rescue techniques and has an excellent success record at mass strandings.
ORRCA is leading the way in developing more effective ways to rescue whales and other marine mammals.
ORRCA is the most experienced and successful whale rescue organisation in Australia.
