“A professional non-profit organisation dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating and releasing a national treasure in danger of becoming extinct because of other Government organisations and Koala “Rescue” groups in SA supporting their demise by sterilisation and culling. A passionate group of people willing to help koalas 24/7. Thank you 1300 Koalaz for being there for them. 🐨”

Sally Pj Mclean
“Great experience with this group today. Volunteer Jan came to Crafers to check our resident koala who appeared to have an eye injury. Turns out the injury was an old one and the koala was very healthy. Jan willing shared a huge amount of information about koalas with us. We now know many ways of identifying whether a koala is sick or not and will share this with our neighbourhood. Thanks so much for all your work.”
