Description

Shai Ager leads the largest wildlife rescue organisation in Queensland. She and her team have rescued and relocated almost 1000 macropods (kangaroos and wallabies) in conditions that even environmental scientists said were impossible. She personally cares for dozens of wild animals at her own property, consults locally and interstate, and is sent around the country to rescue the most delicate animals and the rarest species in highly sensitive conditions. She has fought government, fought stereotypes from the public and sometimes even fought against persons in her own sector who have tried to stop her and tear her down, and she had triumphed. And she is still only 27.

Boisterous, smart and driven, Shai is a whirlwind of inspiration.
