On the last Saturday of each month, we will be hosting a Koala Spotting Walk. Each month the location will vary. Please leave your pets at home. We estimate that the walk will take about an hour. We will be stopping to assess different trees and look for scat and scratch marks on trees too. Koalas have been sighted in this area, so hopefully we might be lucky to spot one.

Supported by a grant from WIRES 'Building Connections Between Community and Wildlife'.

We need your help to collect valuable information on the koalas that live on or visit your property or neighbourhood area.

Koalas are considered an umbrella species. This means, that if there is sufficient useable habitat for them, then other species should be able to thrive too.

With gaps in the known habitat areas and distribution of this under-threat species, we need to learn more to better protect them. We’d love to know when you are seeing or hearing koalas, on your property or in your local area. We are also interested to know how often you are seeing/hearing koalas and how long they stay in your area.
