Cleland Wildlife Park Adelaide – Kangaroos, Koalas and Emus Oh My…

Cleland In The News: Cleland Wildlife Park has pitched in to rescue animals from the recent horrific wildfires. More koalas have been translocated from bushfire-ravaged Kangaroo Island and will be housed at Cleland Wildlife Park to add to the recently established disease-free insurance population. The translocation was carried out by Hanson Bay Wildlife Sanctuary and Cleland Wildlife Park staff to prevent the koalas from dying of starvation and these animals will further establish an ark population on mainland South Australia. Kangaroo Island koalas are free of diseases like KORV, which is widespread in South Australia’s mainland populations.
