City of Swan officers are not authorised to remove snakes. If you see a snake do not attempt to kill or capture a snake yourself. Remain calm and note where the snake disappeared to, then contact Department of Parks and Wildlife(open in new window).
Contact us to report a deceased animal and we will remove it.
If you’ve found an injured or orphaned bird or native animal:
- Keep it safe and comfortable
- Find your nearest Native Animal Rescue support vet(open in new window).
- If you can’t take the animal to a vet, call the Department of Parks and Wildlife(open in new window) 24 hour Wildcare Helpline on (08) 9474 9055.

Residents can keep almost any kind of bird. However you might need a licence from the Department of Parks and Wildlife(open in new window) so check out their website first.
We do not manage the control or removal of animal pests or invasive species.
