The Cold Country Koala habitat enhancement and survey project has allowed 15 landholders to protect and enhancing koala habitat in South East NSW, around the Numeralla ARKS (Area of Regional Koala Significance). This has involved livestock exclusion fencing and/or revegetation planting as well as pest animal and weed control works. The project has also included an audio ‘Koala Karaoke’ survey, which showed that the koala population in much of this area is going well despite being impacted by the 2019/2022 bushfires.

South East Local Land Services working alongside Australian National University, Upper Snowy Landcare LAOKO Snowy Mountains Wildlife Rescue and TATE Animals. 

This project is supported by the Australian Government.
