SAVE OUR KOALAS & THEIR FOREST HOMES

From deadly disease to catastrophic wildfires, floods, and rampant deforestation - koalas have been hit from all angles.

Now uplisted to ENDANGERED status along our east coast, they're at a critical crossroad and urgently need your help. Without stronger protection, koala populations are on a very slippery slope towards extinction by 2050 in eastern Australia.

There's no time to lose.

Adopting a koala today will help turn this tragedy around by protecting them against Chlamydia that’s decimating populations, upscaling the capacity of wildlife hospitals to ensure koalas can receive the care they need, and by protecting and restoring their forest homes.

Please, adopt a koala today and help save this much-loved Aussie icon from extinction. And for each koala you assist, you’ll be helping hundreds of other native species too. If you sign-up to an on-going adoption, you'll also receive exclusive koala adoption updates throughout the year.

 


How your donation helps vulnerable koalas

By adopting a koala today, you ensure wildlife carers and medical facilities can care for sick, injured and vulnerable koalas; create wildlife corridors to help them move around safely; and protect their forest homes for the long-term.
