How Taronga Zoo Keepers are Feeding Koalas Rescued from Bushfires

- A koala’s diet is a little more complex than you might think. In order to feed rescued Koalas currently being cared for at Taronga Zoo Sydney, our team of keepers are needing to make leaf collection a part of their daily commute. We doubt Nick ever thought this would be part of his job description! We’re so lucky here at Taronga to have such a dedicated and passionate team.

MY HEARTFELT THANK YOU ALL , FIREFIGTHTERS , THE RESCUERS . VOLUNTEERS AND ALL FOR DEDICATIONS AND COMMITMENTS .
My dad wasn’t a volunteer he worked at the zoo for 20 years he’s the one being interviewed in my house and in my backyard
Taking care of koalas for 23 years isnt an easy job. I must say Taronga Zoo is very blessed to have such a dedicated keeper.
God bless all the animal rescuers in beautiful Australia. Much much love from a Native American in Oregon.
Thank you so much for watching, Rain - and for your kind words.
What a great communicator. He's well spoken, clearly intelligent and has a good understanding of the subject but does seem to talk at you like most people when there put on camera. But most importantly he seems like some you would want to have a beer with. Now the worlds press are looking at Australia please put people like him out front.
Thanks Simon! We'll pass your feedback on to Nick and the team!
My thoughts exactly
How can some people not like this ? Jealous haters most likely. This is awesome.
I pray that the koalas and all animal and critter species joyfully thrive and multiply. 🙂🙏💗
Thank you Australian rescue volunteers for saving and rehabilitating fire-injured koalas. You are HEROES to the world. And you are ANGELS to the koalas you rescue. Thank you Toronga Zoo for your great people, and your contributions to the rescue efforts.
this keeper looks like a koala too! with those cute ears. right choice of career mate.
"It's 25 years to create a viable habitat for koalas." Nick is wonderful; isn't he?
Reports from biologists have been that koalas will be extinct by 2050, and these studies were done before the huge bush fires of this winter (in the northern hemisphere; it has been summer in Australia).
As a US citizen, I feel the Bern . . . .
I'm an old fogey boomer for Bernie. If I was 18, I'd love to become a Green New Deal worker to plant trees in Australia to restore koala habitat.
Great Australians saving great Australians
Thanks for watching, Peter!
Thank you so much for caring for the sweet grey babies. I may live on the other side of the world, but I have always loved koalas. It would be a worldwide tragedy if they were to become extinct. Save the koalas!🐨🐨

@@TarongaSydney did my dad see it 🤷♂️
I’m a Sydneysider always been proud of Taronga. Thanks for publishing this real account of the situation and your professional but kind approach to our unique wildlife.
Thanks for all you guys do ❤️ we need all The animals ❤️
Thanks for watching, Lunkis.
This has answered some of the questions I have been thinking about. How are all these rescue organisations feeding all the animals in their care when all the food has been consumed by fire?
I think you know, the world is watching & concerned about your Country’s stricken & endangered wildlife. I’m going to be a regular financial contributor now. I hope you’ll continue to have financial support!
Thanks so much for your support and generosity Kari!
Kari, stay ever Blessed
Thanks for helping our 🐨 mate. They are very vulnerable so it's great to see passionate people like yourself helping them out cause they really need our help.
True that, glad you can appreciate what my dad was doing not everyone liked what he was doing at Taronga it was always people who had no idea about how important this stuff is and they had never looked further in the lives of animals
Thank you so much these 🐨 are blessed to have people like yourself.
Hey this is at my house I remember the film crew getting here and having to go to school early because dad had to do an interview
what would we do with out these kind heart people like him, koalas are famous animals in Australia.. this show how much they care for these creatures. i pray for them and all those animals for rain and hopes for koalas and other wild life animals in years go by.. thank you too all our fire mans for there hard work putting that fire out.. and thank God for giving them rain..
Wonderfull job and wonderfull persons that love animals😘🙏🙏🏻
Australia as a whole won’t let their iconic and unique wildlife fade without a fight. ❤️❤️🇦🇺❤️❤️🙏🏻🇦🇺🇦🇺🙏🏻 once all the fires are done and gone, and new plant growth comes back, that country will be stunning and teeming with life again! They just need a break from fires, floods, hail, dust storms n I hope like hell they don’t have Coronavirus there on top of that! ❤️❤️🇦🇺❤️❤️
You are amazing and I feel better after listening to you. Thank you for all that you do 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Hi Randy, thanks for the suggestion - we'll look into it!
Thanks for your hard work and dedication.
Great to someone who loves his work!!!
Love U guys sooooo Much and Admire your Commitment even More .
ThanQ on behalf of Every Koala.
I so respect him and him teams intelligence! Its very easy to look at a Koala with their big bottoms and black noses and think yes....a live teddy bear! What he is describing is that they may have a role as gatekeepers of the Eucalyptus trees and all of the nature beneath them! I believe Koalas are pretty smart and have figured us out which is why they decide to live right at the top of the trees where we can't bother them! I also believe that they are not going to give the game away! They know how stupid we humans can be but I believe that they are extremely thankful and grateful for our help!
Thank you, Nick, for all your great job! Please, save those cuties !
We'll pass your message on to Nick and the team Birdie! Thanks for watching!
@@TarongaSydney
And Thanks for your GREAT job too. I was /am so touched by all pictures from AUS... with all those mute creatures suffering and dying in the flames. Like they were our animals. And although I have never been to AUS and never will be I consider your fantastic fauna to be OURS, cause you have that priviledge to care about so valuable and precious species for all the humanity. Sorry for my "simplistic" English :)
You are God's special one .pl keep doing this good work and save wild life..
Thanks for watching!
No thanks to you for uploading this video..
The point at 2:25 is the key point.... We all need to start planting these in whatever our local areas species are.

These poor genital creatures have been under so much threats including man's encroachment of their habitat and disease.
