“It’s been wonderful having visitors back at Crocworld Conservation Centre and we’re delighted to be relaunching the monthly talks that give insight into the incredible animals that reside in the area,”
said Crocworld’s Bird Curator, Ryne Ferguson.
“Mojo, our late resident eagle owl, was such a popular addition to the centre, we felt that an owl-focused talk would be a great way to start the new series. These are such interesting birds, and with so many species now threatened, it’s important that we all learn a bit more about them and what we can do to support them.”

The August presentation will welcome FreeMe Wildlife’s CEO, Wade Whitehead, who has more than 30 years’ experience in the wildlife industry. Whitehead started his career managing conservation areas, to trail guiding, lodge management, game farm management and wildlife rehabilitation. He is an entrepreneur at heart, with a vision for building and developing small businesses and organisations to best practice standards. He took over as CEO at FreeMe Wildlife in 2016, and under his management has built the organisation to a world-class standard.
He will be joined by FreeMe Wildlife’s resident Raptor Specialist, Finances and Development Officer, Tammy Caine. She has been working with birds of prey since 2006, involved in captive management, training, research, and rehabilitation. Since 2015, she has become more involved in public education, and presents several talks and courses on various aspects of bird of prey conservation, as well as managing the Owl Box Project.
