15.01.2022 Part 5 The last group of Cape Bridgewater koalas were released today #179 #199... #66 (Route 66) #59 (Tiny) It has been a long 9mth journey and we have been blessed by many organisations and volunteers that have helped get these koalas back were they belong, to the wild Photos by Carly

15.01.2022 Can you spot our escapee? He/she is so tiny Ducklings can jump really high, and this little creature jumped out of his box They are also very fast! Took a bit to catch him

15.01.2022 No one has told him yet it's the goldfish pond and he's not meant to be in there

14.01.2022 It was hot today! So what do you do when you can't take your fur coat off? You let everything hang Koalas will normally ball up and tuck their feet and hands in, but when its hot they tend to hang or dangle to keep cool

12.01.2022 Kevi, the very last of the Cape Bridgewater koalas was released today The day before of release, she escaped, still have no idea how she did it She was recaught, (she wasnt happy about that) and released with her group

12.01.2022 Reposted from @ifawaustralia More than 50 hectares of koala habitat in Port Stephens is set to be cleared after the federal environment minister, @sussanleymp, approved the expansion of the Brandy Hill quarry. Our report earlier this year showed that an estimated 6,382 koalas perished during the last bushfires in NSW. This is nearly 15% of the population. Shockingly, 62% of the population has been lost over the past three generations. This decision by Ms Ley signals more bad ...news for NSW koalas and strengthens our resolve to urge the government to up-list koalas from Vulnerable to Endangered status. We need your support to protect this iconic species; we cannot let them become extinct on our watch. Click the link over at ifaw to sign the petition today!

12.01.2022 Mum and bub were well enough to be released

11.01.2022 Ever heard a koala swear? Turn up the volume Seanchai (on the right) is checking out the new guy (he doesn't have a name yet) Koalas have great sense of smell and like to touch noses to see who it is, they will do this with humans too But the new guy is telling Seachai "back off buddy, you're too close"

11.01.2022 Remember our rescued koala that had his head run over and needed CitiPower and Powercor Australia and local police to get him down out of the tree over a busy road? He was well enough to be released today! While he wanted to go in the opposite direction to the tree, he finally realised it was the best option

11.01.2022 Our cygnet is going from fluffy to feathers

11.01.2022 Newest inmate A male found "sleeping" on the road Koalas dont sleep on roads And looking at his poor head he's had a good hit to the right side

10.01.2022 A soft release cage for two of Mosswood's possums The cage is set up at the final release site, the possums come and go as they please, all while being supported

08.01.2022 Tickles and Mindy were released last week

08.01.2022 A very happy ending for this little joey The joey was found at the front door of a house all alone Sandy and Carly went out to see if they could find the joeys mum and success! Mum was still in the area and they were reunited Rescue, release and reunite

07.01.2022 Enjoying the Sunday sun

04.01.2022 How amazing is this! The rehabilitated, now wild kookaburras are now feeding the little fledgling kookaburra While they aren't doing it all the time, (because he/she needs regular feedings), it's great that they are doing it at all!

04.01.2022 Sad news - Mosswood farewells one of our most popular and photographed/videoed koalas, Polly Polly had been unwell for sometime blood tests gave no answers. Her behaviour has often been misinterpreted as cuddly and looking for human companionship. This is incorrect. It portrays a wild animal that will never be releasable She see sawed between being bright and happy, to being depressed and needy, often excessively drinking water The decision was made to send our beloved Poll...y to a place where she no longer suffers She will be missed RIP Polly See more

03.01.2022 Say hello to Heidi She's not very big and has lost her mother But she is safe and being cared for at Mosswood

01.01.2022 Our little orphan is doing well, he's outside today climbing and learning coordination He has been named Seanchai, which is an Irish word for "story teller" Pronounced shan-a-key

01.01.2022 This is Jube She was found on the ground, by some workers near a place called Jubilee Park One of Mosswoods foster carers went out to try and reunite Jube with her mum, who was high up in the tree above Jube Jube called out to her mum, but her mum wouldn't come down to collect her, Jube at 342gms was way to small to climb and at this weight, still should be in mum's pouch (hold out your hand, Jube would fit in your palm) Foster carer Val took Jube home to warm her up as she... was very cold. The next day Jube was taken back to try again to reunite, but Jubes mum had gone Jube has done well in care, but a few times was found with one of the kangaroo joeys in their pouch, naughty Jube (this can be stressful to the kangaroo and is not encouraged) Jube has 3 koala joey friends and now spends her time with them, getting bigger, stronger and learning to be a koala She is now over 1.2kgs See more
