Experience this urgent new Australian documentary followed by a fascinating and insightful in-person discussion with Tanya Pritchard, WWF Australia's Senior Manager for Koala Recovery, and Dr Tracy Rout, WWF Australia's Senior Research Fellow in the Centre for Biodiversity and Conservation Science. A powerful film that celebrates resilience in the face of the challenges and invites audiences to become catalysts for change, this pertinent call to action is not to be missed. "On the East Coast of Australia, where ancient forests meet the urban fringe, koalas are facing unprecedented challenges. THE KOALAS sheds light on a disturbing truth: the very entities entrusted with safeguarding our natural treasures are contributing to the demise of these emblematic creatures.

THE KOALAS takes audiences on a journey into the lives of individual koalas, led by charismatic characters - Wonnie, Bexley, Tom, Baz, Coral and adorable joeys Hope and Pala. As these stories unfold, we witness the unique characteristics of koalas, their bond with their young, and the wildlife carers they come into contact with. These seven emerge as ambassadors for all koalas facing threats to their ongoing survival.
