The Koala Sanctuary on Kangaroo Island is committed to securing the future of one of Australia's most iconic and threatened species. Nestled within the island's last remaining large unburnt eucalypt plantation, our 500-hectare sanctuary is home to approximately 1,000 disease-free koalas — a valuable population with the potential to support the recovery of the species nationwide.
