Baby Olivia is doing well and is making the most of her newly finished 50sqm cage – click here to watch a short video of Olivia eating her leaf.
Our bushfire affected koalas have been enjoying the purpose built outdoor cages for over three weeks now and are doing very well considering the injuries they initially presented with.

Unfortunately Narla the worst burnt koala was euthanased a few days ago due to several ongoing medical issues. The entire AMWRRO team gave 100% ever since taking in these effected animals and much to everyone’s disappointment; Narla’s body had suffered severely and was laid to rest, a very sad moment followed by many tears by all involved.
The other four koalas: Marley, Penny, Roxy and Olivia are all thriving and enjoying their purpose built cages with special thanks to Mark Pickard C/o Hallett Concrete for supplying and installing the mammoth 130sqm concrete flooring in one day.
These cages are currently being used for koalas but will serve many purposes and help save hundreds of Australian Native animals in years to come.
A special thanks to all those people and businesses who donated money, time, medical goods (and home cooked dinners for our volunteers) to these very important animals, we at AMWRRO thank you very much for your support.
It is very gratifying to know there are people out there who care enough to help these animals by way of supporting those who stand up and do something about a problem as oppose to criticize and cause counterproductive problems for those who actually make a difference to many lives in difficult times such as a bushfire.
To all our supporters and friends of AMWRRO – thank you for supporting our work and for helping all our volunteers get through these difficult and trying times by way of lovely letters, words of encouragement and praising messages, by post and on our Facebook page.
You are who push us to better our ways and help us save those who are voiceless in times of need; you are all the voice of the voiceless.
Thank you AMWRRO Management.
