Jan the Koala
In late summer of 2019 a small male joey was found curled up in the middle of the road and was lucky not to have been hit by a car. Once admitted to the Koala Hospital, Jan (pronounced Yarn) was found to have an early-stage ocular chlamydial infection. He was anaemic, very underweight, had a distended abdomen and was worm-infested. Following a lot of work and treatment in-home care, and despite a few setbacks, Jan became healthy enough to be transferred to the Joey yard at the Koala Hospital.
Jan has a delightful nature and our volunteers love caring for him. As he is still unable to be released, he has become a permanent resident at the Koala Hospital.
