SAVE KOALAS FROM EXTINCTION
Koalas may become extinct in large areas of Eastern Australia as early as 2050 without intervention!
We cannot imagine this country without Australia’s most iconic animal, so please give generously.
Koalas face many threats in the wild including disease, habitat destruction, vehicle strikes, dog attacks, bushfires and more.
In 2008, the Currumbin Wildlife Hospital admitted just 27 Koalas and now the team are admitting over 400 Koalas per year.
Chlamydia is now the leading cause of death in Koalas at Currumbin Wildlife Hospital.
Hershey the one-year-old Koala featured here is an example of the species’ plight as she is suffering from conjunctivitis, a symptom of chlamydia.
It costs an average of $7000 and 6 weeks of treatment to save a Koala from this disease.
Fortunately, thanks to your donations, our team is working around the clock to put an end to this deadly disease.
We have now vaccinated over 350 Koalas as part of our Koala Chlamydia Vaccine Research Program, led by Dr Michael Pyne OAM, Senior Vet of Currumbin Wildlife Hospital.
This research now includes 53 Koalas and 30 Koala joeys that have been born into the program.
Please help us make a change that the whole world will appreciate.
