Council thanks residents who have submitted their koala sighting locations.
Council is continuing to work with koala conservation experts, including the University of the Sunshine Coast. USC has been granted research funding from the Noosa Biosphere Reserve Foundation® to assess the health of Noosa koala populations. USC researchers are using a specially-trained koala-tracking dog to help locate local koalas and collect their scats or ‘poos’ for analysis. Residents can request a visit by the koala tracking dog if they think that they may have koalas frequenting their property, by contacting Council or Daniel Nugent, University Researcher dnugent@usc.edu.au.
