Koala Diaries Home - National Koala Sighting Census

Welcome to Koala Diaries

The purpose of the Koala Diaries website is to educate and engage the community in koala conservation. It is a hub for community participation in saving Australia's iconic koala, under threat of extinction from urban development, loss of habitat and disease. Our online koala sighting survey uses leading edge GIS software from ESRI Australia to capture data of koala sightings Australia-wide, helping to drive awareness and generate new learning about koalas. With a single national database of koala sightings, we seek to bring together researchers, government agencies and the community to collaborate on more informed policies to save the koala. Sign up as a member today, it is free.

You can help save the koala by reporting the location of koalas sighted in the wild under Project Location, our national online koala sighting survey.
