QLD Flood Relief - GoFundMe for Outback Veterinary Assistance​

​​Over 100,000 head of livestock are predicted lost
​after the catastrophic QLD outback floods. 

Thousands more are totally isolated, and requiring urgent veterinary care.
Please help those surviving to receive veterinary care from Dr Campbell Costello (Cosy), of Outback and Airborne Veterinary Services.
Cosy has volunteered his time and expertise to fly to many regional locations,  accessible now only by air, to urgently treat livestock and horses
​that have been standing in water for days to weeks.
Please help him continue to do so.
