Hi there, I’m Jax! In 2019 I tried to outrun a car but unfortunately, the car won. I was found on the side of the road covered in ticks. I was in lots of pain with a broken femur, cuts and scratches. The veterinary team operated to fix my leg but I had to be kept immobile for seven weeks to recover – that’s a long time for a koala to stay in a basket! But it worked. I’m able to climb again however I need to stay at PSKH for ongoing treatment.
We rely on adoptions and donations to help save koalas and other native wildlife. As we are a not-for-profit organisation, your generosity will help to cover the inevitable costs.
We have Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) status which makes it easier for us to fundraise to support the ongoing work of Port Stephens Koala Hospital.
