This spring we celebrated a huge Koala milestone; the very first Koala joey born in our Barrington Wildlife Sanctuary since we confirmed the Sanctuary chlamydia-free. A symbol of hope! Soon we need to recapture and retest all our Koalas, to ensure their continued health and future. But this is expensive and we need your help! Help Aussie Ark save the Koala from extinction.

Today's the start of Save the Koala Month! And Aussie Ark is thrilled to announce the birth of a new Koala joey in our Barrington Wildlife Sanctuary! Mother Banksia is a wild Koala who is living in the Sanctuary alongside seven other adult Koalas. When we first met her last year she had joey Gymea. Now she’s birthed a second joey, which is the first joey born since we famously confirmed our Sanctuary as chlamydia-free! It’s a huge conservation milestone; proof our program is working as we strive
