Good news: Our koala population is now recovering in the Noosa region with densities estimated to be approximately 0.2 koalas per hectare in good habitat. Restoration of forests and native regeneration: Large scale efforts are reconnecting corridors and providing vital food and habitat resources for our koalas. Current concern: Genetic diversity does however remain compromised due to previous low population numbers caused by historical hunting and habitat fragmentation. Reinstating koala corridors to allow for genetic dispersal and improving the condition of recovering bushland is critical to support our recovering koala population. A beacon of hope
