Meet Bolt! ⁠🐨
⁠⁠
This adult male Koala was found on the ground in an electricity compound. Fortunately, he was rescued and admitted to Currumbin Wildlife Hospital for an urgent workup or medical assessment.

Due to his unusual behaviour, there is concern that Bolt may have been electrocuted. Thankfully, no signs of chlamydia were detected, and his medical assessment will help shape his rehabilitation plan.

For now, he's being cared for around the clock in the Intensive Care Unit. Once Bolt is fit for the wild, the Currumbin Wildlife Hospital team will ensure he is released into a safer area as close to his rescue location as possible.
⁠
To help support koalas like Bolt, we are offering 15%* off September retreats and donating $200 per retreat sold on this offer to Currumbin Wildlife Hospital.

To book, visit gwinganna.com and use the code SEP15 at online checkout, or contact a Retreat Advisor at (07) 5589 5000. *Conditions apply. Orchard and villa room types. Subject to availability. Must stay before 30 September 2025.

What to Do If You See a Koala in Need ⁠
⁠
Koalas are most at risk during breeding season (July–December), when they are more active and often cross roads in search of mates. If you come across a koala that is sick, injured, or orphaned, here’s what to do: ⁠
⁠
1. Call for help immediately⁠
Contact Wildcare Australia’s 24/7 hotline on 07 5527 2444 if you’re in the Gold Coast, Logan, Scenic Rim or Brisbane regions. ⁠
⁠
2. Roadside accidents⁠
Koalas are especially vulnerable at dawn and dusk. If you see one hit by a car, it needs urgent veterinary care. ⁠
⁠
3. Look for warning signs⁠
Disorientation, a wet or dirty bottom, or conjunctivitis are signs the koala is unwell. ⁠
⁠
4. Don’t ignore deceased koalas⁠
Call Wildcare — volunteers will pouch-check for joeys, confirm the cause, and record the location. ⁠
⁠
Wildcare’s dedicated volunteers will arrange rescue, transport and care. Your quick action could save a life.

Meet Ghana and Gigi 🐨💚⁠
⁠⁠
Last week, this mother and her joey were taken to Currumbin Wildlife Hospital in the morning to receive their chlamydia vaccinations before being safely released back into the wild at Gwinganna in the afternoon.⁠
⁠
This important work helps protect the health of koalas in the area and supports the long-term survival of the species.⁠
⁠
Such a heartwarming moment for guests and staff to witness.⁠
