Wildlife hospital at bursting point

The Currumbin Wildlife Hospital, on Queensland's Gold Coast, is seeing a surge in animals needing care, especially lorikeets and flying foxes which are being left paralysed by an unusual syndrome. Just last month, the hospital treated more than 1200 birds alone - and it's putting a huge strain on the hospital's resources. Guest: Dr Michael Pyne, senior vet at Currumbin Wildlife Hospital
