Koalas (which are not bears) spend most of their lives perched up eucalypt trees, eating leaves or sleeping. Baby koalas ride on their mother's back for many months. They are very difficult to see, even in known habitats.

Koalas provides very clear and informative data on these intriguing little animals.

Historic Braidwood

The little town of Braidwood in southern New South Wales has a population of about 3000 people, and was established in the early 1800s. The town has been the location for a number of movies, including a version of 'Ned Kelly' starring Mick Jagger, from the Rolling Stones.
