Thousands of koalas are expected to have perished in the flames, but the Koala Hospital is doing all it can to save the koala population.In October, the hospital started a GoFundMe page to raise money to replace 12 automatic drinking stations that were destroyed by the fires.The hospital asked for 25,000 AUD. At the time this article was written, the GoFundMe page had raised over two million AUD.
The number of planned drinking stations has been increased from 12 to 100.Additionally, the Koala Hospital plans to establish a wild koala breeding program with the creation of three controlled breeding areas.However, before steps can be taken to rebuild Australia's decimated koala population, the hospital — and the koalas — must wait out the blaze as the country continues to experience wildfires and record heat.
