Little Zelly was found by a lovely member of the public trying to get out of the backyard. When she couldn’t go underneath the fence, she climbed over it, then walked along it slowly several times. She tried to get down a few times utilising a Frangipani tree and a shed roof but couldn't make it and ended up just sitting there for hours. When our rescuer first got there, she found a big log 🪵 and tied it to the fence in the hope Zelly would come down. She didn't. This, her unusual behaviour and her location (away from food trees, near a steep drop towards a busy road and with dogs loose in the area, led us to the decision to bring her into care.
She was given a clean bill of health and we were able to release her in a much better spot. She knew it too as she calmly made her way up the tree and started eating leaf instantly. #koalarescue #NorthernRiversNSW #koalarelease
