Episode description
The Australian koala population is in serious decline - suffering from the effects of habitat destruction, domestic dog attacks, bushfires and road accidents. The Australian Koala Foundation estimates that there are less than 100,000 Koalas left in the wild, possibly as few as 43,000.
Linda Sparrow is the founder of Bangalow Koalas and spends her days planting trees and creating environments that can best give our beloved koalas a fighting chance.
