How can you help koalas?

Every koala is precious. The survival of koalas depends on us.

There are lots of ways you can help to recover our nationally significant koala population in Ballina. We can all make a difference, here are some tips:

• Report sick or injured koalas to Friends of the Koala on 02 6622 1233

• Drive with care at night, especially in koala zones

• Be a responsible dog owner - keep your dog away from koalas

• Plant koala trees on your property or join your local Landcare group

• Get involved – join a local group working to help koalas
