Save our koalas & their forest homes

Koalas are a symbol of Australia and these sleepy, branch-hugging marsupials are dependent on trees for food and shelter. But with an average 100,000 trees bulldozed across Australia each day, koalas now face extinction in east coast states by 2050.


They are now at a critical crossroad as they also face threats from deadly disease and climate disasters.

Adopting a koala today can help turn this tragedy around.

 

What you'll receive

Your special adoption gift pack includes a cuddly koala plush toy, fact book, adoption certificate, Living Planet magazine and WWF sticker.

 

You’ll also receive updates about how your support is helping to conserve and protect our Aussie wildlife.


How do WWF gifts make a difference?

Your koala adoption can help turn this tragedy around, by protecting them against koala 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.

Your generosity will be a sign of your support for conservation and animal advocacy, ensuring our iconic koalas remain part of our environment forever.

 

And for each koala you assist, you'll help a host of other native species too. As well as teaching younger generations about the importance of conservation.


WWF-Australia and Koala.com are supporting the Ipswich Koala Protection Society’s rescue and recovery efforts. The Ipswich Koala Protection Society runs two dedicated koala and wildlife ambulances around the clock, and rescues over 180 koalas per year as well as countless other wildlife. Organisations like Ipswich Koala Protection Society and their team of dedicated carers provide ongoing care and medical treatment to sick and injured koalas so they can eventually be returned to the wild.
