Nurturing.
In the aftermath of the devastating bushfires that engulfed much of Australia in 2019-20 it became evident that our symbolic fauna favourite the Koala was almost decimated.
Large colonies were wiped out and it is estimated that they may never fully recover and face extinction.
Fortunately this mother and child were bred in captivity as part of a breeding program initiated at the Billabong Zoo.
The program even allows for the public to sponsor a Koala and in doing so will ensure their longevity.
