Kent is tolerating his Chlamydia treatment very well. After his latest round he had worked up quite an appetite.
When told he should slow down munching on the leaf he stuck his tongue out, but managed to keep eating while he did.

Fern came in during the recent wet spell after she took shelter in the wrong spot and had a run in with a dog.
Fortunately she did not have any major injuries and after some tlc she is due for release in the near future. We will bring you her release video once it has taken place.

It wasn't only Isobel who went wild last week, Layla, Darcy and Dotty also had their big release day. The three were released about 300m away from Isobel's release site.
Layla and Dotty went off well, but Darcy was a little more hesitant and needed a gentle hand to help her on her way. Whereas Layla and Dotty headed straight to the top branches Darcy hid behind some leaf a little way up.
Their antics up high had our hearts in our mouths especially when they decided to show off and dangle from the branches.
It was after that we decided it was best to leave them to settle in as our nerves could'nt take it anymore.
Three days later we went to check on their progress but there was no sign of them anywhere in the immediate release area. It is always bitter sweet, sad to see your babies go, but, happy to know they are confident little koalas happy to go and explore their new world.

Yesterday was a huge day for not only Isobel but also for us.
As timid as she is, Isobel was keen to go. We had picked out a fabulous spot as safe as it could possibly be, miles from any busy roads.
She went up easily but stopped at one spot for ages, but, eventually she got going and was relaxed enough to start eating.
A huge thankyou to everyone involved in Isobel's rehabilitation. We were so worried the break in her leg would not be able to be mended but thanks to SASH for operating on her at a heavily discounted rate the leg was pinned. Thank you to everyone who donated to help us make that happen, we have another healthy female out in the wild.
The biggest thanks has to go to her carer who took on the months of rehabilitation, it isn't easy keepng a joey from moving around when their natural instinct is to climb.

Isobel has been a little star. After having her leg pinned and being restricted from climbing Isobel has made a remarkable recovery.
Her fur has totally grown back after the fur on her leg was shaven off.
She now loves to climb and has done so well she is getting ready for release.

Say hi to beautiful Wilma.
Wilma came in a while ago after a member of public called us about a koala knocking on her window.
This is not normal behaviour so she was brought in for a check up and found to have Chlamydia.
She has started her treatment and hopefully she will do well and be back out before too much longer.

We have to thank Seymour College for not only their generous donation but also for taking the time to fundraise so they could purchase koala trees to plant.
The pictures show some of the girls, along with Coby the koala off to plant them out .
Again, a, huge thank you to Seymour College and all the girls for caring about our koalas and making sure they have enough to eat. It's great to see trees being planted and not cut down for a change.
If you find a sick, injured, orphaned or distressed koala, please call 1300KOALAZ (1300 562 529) for help or advice.
