The project will restore part of the ex-Deutsche Welle radio relay station at Xrobb l-Ghagin Natural Park, transform it into a Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre, and valorise it for tourism. It will provide ex-situ rehab. of wildlife from across Malta and surrounding seas: marine (turtles and cetaceans), terrestrial (such as hedgehogs, shrews, lizards, snakes and bats) and avian fauna. Following rehabilitation, if possible, they will be released into their natural habitat. It will be a unique, all year round visitor attraction providing an ‘authentic’, ‘creative’ and meaningful experience to visitors allowing them to ‘interact’ (within limits afforded by regulations and best practices) with the rehabilitating wildlife. Already a special experience for day visitors, it will be more significant for tourists staying at the Xrobb l-Ghagin hostel and 64 volunteer tourists per year who will contribute to the running of the Centre and thecaring/rehabilitation of wildlife.
