The Great Koala Count

The Great Koala Count was a citizen science initiative that took place across six local government areas (LGAs) in New South Wales. The aim of the project was to gather information about koalas, including their distribution, abundance, and the threats they face. The results of the study provided valuable insights into the state of koalas in these areas.

Genetic Code of Koalas

A team of Australian and international scientists, led by Professor Rebecca Johnson, Director of the Australian Museum Research Institute and Professor Katherine Belov, University of Sydney, have made a significant break-through successfully sequencing the full koala genome. Considered to be the most complete marsupial genome sequenced to date, it is in terms of quality, on par with the human genome.

Christmas Island Reptiles

Reptile species only found on Christmas Island are being saved from extinction through a captive breeding program established in 2009. Since then, FNPW and our supporters have funded two projects in 2013 and 2015 to house the growing reptile populations.
