Koalas are losing their homes and their lives
There's no other creature in the world like the koala - yet this Aussie icon is facing extinction, right under our noses.
Koalas are losing their homes at an alarming rate. Left with nowhere to go. Because when you're completely dependent on trees - for shelter and food-chainsaws, bulldozers and bushfires spell a death sentence.
When their homes are destroyed koalas are forced onto the ground. There they face further threats from dog attacks, vehicle accidents, starvation and stress-induced disease.
Throughout east coast states, koalas are casualties of some of the highest landclearing rates in the world. Their populations have more than halved in the past 20 years and the koala is at serious risk of becoming extinct in both New South Wales and Queensland.
The time to act is NOW before they’re lost forever.
You can help stop this decline by supporting the restoration of critical koala habitat. By planting trees to create wildlife corridors that connect crucial populations, koalas will be able to move safely. You can also help create koala safe havens by protecting existing habitat. As well as supporting critical campaigns for stronger nature laws to save what precious forest and woodland remains.
Koalas are depending on people that care to protect their homes and their future. Please give today to help regenerate nature and give our precious Aussie icon a chance of survival.
