An Australian Galah, also known as the pink and grey cockatoo is attended to in the Byron Bay Mobile Wildlife Hospital having been found injured on the ground after heavy rain on March 24, 2021 in Byron Bay, Australia. Extreme weather has caused extensive flooding across New South Wales following days of sustained rain and reports are now emerging of ground-dwelling animals such as echidnas and wombats being trapped underground or being hit by cars when moving to higher ground. Situated at Australia's eastern-most point, the vet team are seeing increasing caseloads of native wildlife presenting with injuries from the floods. The not for profit veterinary organisation is advising the public to be alert to the perils facing wildlife as recovery and cleanup efforts get underway. (Photo by James D. Morgan/Getty Images)
