UAN is not assisting animals affected by the devastating fires that began sweeping through Victoria, Australia on February 6. Our Emergency Animal Rescue Service (EARS) only responds to disasters in the United States and Canada.

However, a number of Australian and international organizations are helping the animals, including the following:

International Fund for Animal Welfare:
