Help us continue to plant eucalypt trees in our Plantations.
Sick and injured koalas recovering in hospital can be very fussy eaters and each koala has their preferred gum species. The gum cutters and veterinary nurses need to select a variety of gum types every day to keep the hospital patients happy. The Wildlife Hospital now treats over 600 wild koalas every year, so the demand for trees is increasing!
Please help us continue the treatment and care of these Aussie icons. Donate to our Tree to Me Program today. For as little as $10, you can help us continue to plant eucalypt trees in our Plantations.
It takes 1,000 gum trees to feed just one Koala for one year.
We have four Koala fodder plantations that contain around 38,000 gum trees in total.
Due to constant harvesting these trees have a limited lifespan.
It is important that we continue to plant enough trees to sustain this food source for our Koalas.
HELP KEEP OUR DOORS OPEN TO SAVE WILDLIFE
The Currumbin Wildlife Hospital has grown to be one of the busiest wildlife hospitals in the world, admitting almost 14,000 animals a year - a service that is provided free of charge to the community. It is imperative that we can continue to treat, rehabilitate, and release sick and injured wildlife during these testing times. Koala admissions have increased to over 600 in 2020, and each koala costs approximately $7000 to treat.
