Great Otway NP Koala translocation
- YEAR: 2016
- STATE: Victoria
- FOCUS AREAS: Saving Species/SDG 15: Life on Land
Thanks to your support, Koalas translocated to new habitats will have better survival rates, due to research into inoculants. These inoculants aim to provide Koalas with the unique gut microbes needed to digest the different defensive chemicals of eucalypts in their new areas. Before this research, over one third of koalas died within twelve months of relocation. Now, the search is underway for an inoculant to help koalas adapt to changed diets, so they can safely be moved from areas in which there are too many of them, to suitable habitats with too few koalas.
