The NSW Department of Planning and Environment has collaborated with Koala Conservation Australia and Versatile Vet to produce a series of videos to help improve the care of injured, sick or orphaned koalas.

The 11 new videos demonstrate key skills required for the care and management of rescued koalas from capturing a koala on the ground, through to safe transportation, ageing a koala, microchipping and ear-tagging.

The videos are intended for use by wildlife rehabilitators, veterinarians and veterinary nurses, alongside the Initial Treatment and Care Guidelines and the Koala Code of Practice, with the aim of achieving consistency of care, improved clinical outcomes and increased likelihood of release of rehabilitated koalas back into the wild.

Videos can be accessed on the DPE website  and are also FREE in the Versatile Vet video library at https://www.versatilevet.com/
