The Koala Hospital in Port Macquarie has koala admissions of between 200 and 300 each year. Sick or injured (from motor vehicles, dogs, bushfires etc.), koalas are now an endangered species. In the healing phase, after a stint in intensive care, these marsupials are moved into the outdoor yards of the hospital where you can witness their daily feeding. They are given eucalyptus leaves and a specially prepared milk supplement. If you would like to contribute, you can also adopt a wild koala for as little as 50 AUD.

Port Macquarie is a small town on the east coast of Australia somewhere between Sydney and Brisbane. Some shops and restaurants. A port and a waterfront where life seems so pleasant. No extravagance, it is a simple place but still has its charms. The city is also home to the Koala Hospital, the only one of its kind worldwide, which you can visit every day. We like!
