Habitats for Koalas in the Otways

The Great Otway National Park and surrounding private land is a region of high biodiversity and tourism value, especially for the high densities of koala populations. However, over-browsing by koalas has contributed to a marked decline in tree condition, particularly Eucalyptus viminalis (manna gum). This project aims to provide information on koala habitat use, tree species selection and koala movements between habitats in the Otways.
