Rehabilitation Unit

Button is one of many road trauma victims at the AKR Clinic. She was hit by car in the Adelaide Hills and lost use of one of her hind legs. Button is an especially sweet and gentle koala and has been a pleasure to care for. She has one on one physio and exercise sessions three times a day to help her regain use of her leg. She is making improvements all the time. Button has her own private room complete with low obstacles for her to navigate. As her injury improves we will graduate the difficulty of her climbing equipment to challenge her. Eventually she will progress outside to an outdoor enclosure before being tested climbing real trees in our outdoor tree yard. When Button has regained coordination and strength she will be released back in to the wild.

Arizaan is one of many koalas recovering and rehabilitating at the AKR Clinic. She was deliberately hit by car in the Adelaide Hills. Fortunately a witness stayed by her side and called our 24/7 Rescue Hotline for help. Arizaan is doing well and regaining her strength and coordination. While in care with AKR she is being treated for unrelated illness. When fit she will be released
