Koala conservation

Redlands Coast is home to one of the most significant urban koala populations in Australia. While koala populations have diminished over the years, a viable breeding population can still be found in the area. Redland City Council is working closely with research partners and the community to conserve and support our local koalas.

You can improve the health and wellbeing of our koala population while you’re out on a walk, going for a jog or a ride. Simply record your koala sightings through Redlands Coast Koala Watch.

Learn more about koalas and how you can help on the Redland City Council website.
