KOALATRACKER BLOG 


KoalaTracker is Australia's national koala map and database, mapping the location of koala populations, points of impact and causes of death and injury for the public record. KoalaTracker empowers localised advocacy, enables more effective risk mitigation, adds to research and engages the community to save the koala. This blog discusses the knowledge gained through member submissions, koala mapping and location intelligence, scientific research and government action. Please join the conversation.
