Members of the healthiest koala population in Sydney are dying at an alarming rate, as chlamydia-infected koalas and housing development inch closer to their habitat.
  • Koala crossings have not been built and there are no plans to build them soon, risking the safety of the koala population.
  • The koala population is facing threats from housing development projects in the area, which could double their population in the next 20 years.
  • Koala deaths have more than doubled in the Campbelltown area during 2022 and 2023.
  • Lendlease projects aim to balance development with conservation, dedicating nearly half of the land to environmental conservation.
  • The area’s koala population is at risk of contracting chlamydia, and efforts are being made to test and manage the disease.

        I give full permission for anyone to make these shirts so long as long as 20% of the profits go to saving koalas.
