#1300KOALAZ had a great day participating in the Stirling christmas pageant on Sunday. Our members proudly walked along side our new rescue vehicle which was donated by LUSH Australia and sponsored by Australian Outdoor Living.

A special appearance was made by our mascot Colby who brought Cora, another koala mascot friend with him as they as they greeted the crowd, handed out fridge magnets and spread the Christmas cheer.

Did you capture any photos of 1300KOALAZ at the pageant? Post them in the comment below.

Sadly we have some devastating news. Little Casper was diagnosed with oxalate nephrosis so he has been humanely euthanised.

His mum Luna had the same terrible condition so it was always a possibility that Casper had inherited it from her. It’s just so heartbreaking to see such a young little koala who was so full of life and love being taken too soon.

He was an amazing big brother to little Heidi, and their carer would quietly watch them play then cuddle up with each other and fall asleep.

He’s left a hole in our hearts. RIP Casper. 😢🐨

#1300KOALAZ It’s Finn Friday as we get to share the great news that Finn has been released back into the wild!

Finn was lucky to have escaped serious injury when he fell from a tree onto the busy main road of Charleston.

After some rehabilitation in care, he was released to a beautiful patch of trees safely away from the roadside.

Checked the comments to see the next video as he settled in nicely in perfect fork.

Stay safe out there Finn 🥰🐨

Koalas get themselves into all kinds of tricky situations and our latest rescue Ocean was one of those boys.

A concerned homeowner contacted our #1300KOALAZ 24/7 hotline after they found Ocean stuck in their backyard, with no trees or fences to climb to get back out.

When our rescuers attended the late night rescue, they found Ocean perched on a pot plant between a palm tree and on old gum tree stump! He was swiftly rescued and taken into care overnight where he eagerly tucked into fresh eucalyptus leaves.

After a full vet assessment today we are happy to report all his test results came back clear. He did suffered cuts to his paws from the sharp spikes on the tree fronds, so he will remain in care for a short period while his wounds heal.

Welcome to the #1300KOALAZ family, Ocean 🌊 🥰🐨

#1300KOALAZ' Heidi is doing well.

Once she has had her bottle she likes to practice her climbing skills on the indoor tree.

"Looks at me" she says "Iz a big girl, sees Iz can climb up diz branch".

"Yes you can" replied her carer, "and that is why you have to go back to your big girl aviary".

"Huh," said Heidi with a look of surprise on her little fluffy face. "I haz to stay here wid da otha peoples, cos Iz peoples".

"No little one" her carer said gently, "you are a koala and koalas are so much better than people and when you are a big girl you will go out into the world and do koala things. That's why you need to practice your climbing in the aviary."

"Wow" said Heidi, "Iz a kwala, dat iz bedder than beings a peoples." and happily went off to her aviary.

If you find a sick, injured, orphaned or distressed koala please call 1300KOALAZ, (1300 562 529) for help or advice.

1300KOALAZ' Patrick went home recently and although a little later than we would like here is his release video.

After a bit of a false start, first following our team member and then heading in totally the wrong direction, away from the trees Patrick got the right idea and headed straight for a tree.

It truly is a beautiful spot with so many trees to choose from, some kangaroos to chat to and a creek at the bottom of the hill, so thank you to the landowner for allowing us to release Patrick here.

We are hopeful Patrick will stay out of trouble.

If you find a sick, injured orphaned or distressed koala please call 1300KOALAZ, 24/7 for help or advice.

After little Miss Heidi ate her breakfast leaf while sitting in her water bowl, she decided to move on to her breakfast dessert leaf while sitting amongst her favourite branches!
