We adopted Koalas!

Camelot Adopted 4 Koalas for all our dragon ages, see which Koalas our children will be learning about below :)

Anwen is a continued adoption for us, we celebrate this Koala last year after the fires. She received  burns over 90% of her body, in addition to the hands and the feet, she has been recovering slowly but getting more mobile day by day. She loves the daily delivery of fresh leaf!

Jan was found in the middle of the road curled up, lucky enough not to have been hit by a car. Just not feeling well and severely malnourished. Jan was transferred to a 24 hour care facility when he could get better and hopefully join the Joey yard soon with his treatment increasing and his health as well!


Emerald Downs May came to the Koala Hospital with with a very unusual condition for a koala of her age. Her left eye had very advanced glaucoma which is a condition not unusual in koalas but not normally seen in young animals. Poor Emerald Downs Mary must have been involved in some sort of physical trauma - a fall from a tree maybe? Mary is a very gentle easy koala so the decision was made to surgically remove the remaining eye which due to the high ocular pressure would have been causing her considerable pain. As the Koala Hospital has many years' experience in dealing with blind koalas they knew that Mary would cope well (as pictured) with life in captivity.


Baz was a  juvenile koala who had more than likely recently left his mother's home range during the fires. He was found burned by the fires and eventually named after the firefighter that found him. Ruins Way Baz was struggling with recovery from his burns so the Koala Hospital placed Baz in home care with one of their very
experienced carers who gave him 24 hour, 5 star care. His burns injuries slowly healed, his fur began to regrow and Baz finally began to put on weight. He is hoped to be released once all his injuries have gotten better, in the meantime he remains in his new home with lots of love!
