Another successful wildlife relocation completed by POWERHOUSE Logistics — this time exporting 16 beautiful Australian birds from Darling Downs Zoo to Tanganyika Wildlife Park in the USA.
The feathered VIP passengers included Tawny Frogmouths, King Parrots, and the magnificent Red-Tailed Black Cockatoo.
While the birds may have made the journey look easy, behind the scenes this relocation involved an enormous amount of specialist coordination and regulatory compliance. To ensure the smoothest possible journey for the birds, the shipment was booked direct to LAX with Qantas - before our team worked through a complex domestic transfer solution within the USA. All 16 birds arrived safely and settled into their new home.
We also want to acknowledge the incredible work performed by Darling Downs Zoo — a privately owned and operated zoo that relies heavily on public support, buy a ticket and visit the Zoo, or find out other ways you can get involved…… https://darlingdownszoo.com.au/
Projects like this are a reminder that wildlife logistics is far more than transport — it is about care, compliance, collaboration, and creating positive outcomes for conservation and animal welfare worldwide.
Special shout out to Brett Headley, Wymap Group and James Nelligan, Nelligan Pet Transport for their support and professionalism. Successful wildlife logistics relies on trusted partners working together seamlessly.
