Koala Care Centre in Lismore
The Lismore region has one of the highest populations of koalas in NSW, with an estimated 3500. But the native creature is threatened by many things including disease, loss of environment, bushfires, domestic animals and development.
The Lismore Friends of the Koala group have cared for hundreds of koalas and have raised money to set up a Koala Hospital and tree nursery.
Local vets donate their time to care for the sick and injured koalas. The koalas are placed in the nursery temporarily before being released back to their natural environment and visitors are welcome to wander through the nursery and see the koalas. If volunteers are on hand, they will be more than happy to discuss koalas and how people can help save them.
The Lismore Visitor Information Centre on 02 6622 0122 also has an array of information on koalas.
Guided Tours: Monday to Friday at 10.00am & 2.00pm and Saturday at 10.00am.
Tour cost $3.00 per person or $10.00 per family.
