This animal’s safety guarded with the Fahlo Protection Ping™
Every Fahlo tracking experience includes the Fahlo Protection Ping™. This indicates each animal’s unique path may be live, delayed, or historical based on required safety protocol in accordance with our nonprofit partners.
While the experience of following an animal’s journey remains the same for you, we work behind the scenes with our partners to ensure this experience is presented in a way that keeps the animals safe, one step or splash at a time.
G’day from the St. Bees Island koalas! Created in partnership with San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance through their Australian Forest Conservation Hub, each bracelet unlocks an interactive tracking map and helps Fahlo support koala conservation in Eastern Australia.

Super dat je je dier kan volgen. En een mooie armband
I'm always excited when I order a bracelet. They come looking exactly like they are shown when you order one. I've been very happy with every one I have ordered and I have ordered several. It makes me feel good to know that I am, in some small way, helping to support the scientific study that is being done to protect these animals.

Koalas are tracked for many reasons—to track survivorship and generate life history data, to see what areas of the island they use at various times of the year, and to understand how much habitat and range overlap exists. Conservation scientists also like to investigate their sociality and interactions.
Conservation scientists track them using a combination of tools, including store-on-board GPS loggers that record locations several times each day, and VHF transmitters that allow us to find the koalas in the forest. Each koala has a collar weighing about 80 grams that has the GPS and VHF attached.
No, and in fact at some sites conservation scientists get alerts (not at St. Bees Island) if the koalas are moving very slowly, and can check to make sure they are ok. Each collar also has a rubber weak link that degrades over time, so if the collar fails in some way, it will fall off the koala after several months. Additionally, this weak link expands so that the koala will never become entangled or caught in a branch. This means sometimes conservation scientists go looking for the koala, and all they find is a collar, with a free koala at large somewhere nearby!

Are koalas endangered?
Koalas are listed as vulnerable according to the IUCN (International Union for the Conservation of Nature) Red List, with populations decreasing. Their primary threats to survival include habitat loss and fragmentation, drought, disease, vehicle strikes, and dog predation.
What type of animal is a koala?
You may have heard the phrase “koala bear” before, but koalas are marsupials! These are a group of mammals who give birth to live young who instinctively know to crawl into Mom’s pouch to finish their critical development. The females’ backward-facing pouch protects their offspring from branches as they climb around.
What is a baby koala called?
Baby koalas are called joeys!
What sound does a koala make?
Male koalas tend to snort or make bellowing noises, especially to attract a mate, while both males and females can grunt or screech. Young joeys sometimes squeak when calling out to Mom.
What do koalas eat?
Koalas mainly dine on eucalyptus leaves, though they’ll sample other types of leaves as well. To many other animals, eucalyptus can be fatal if ingested, but koalas’ digestive systems have evolved to tolerate the toxins. They can eat up to 2.5 lb (~1 kg) of eucalyptus leaves each day!
Where do koalas live?
Koalas inhabit the eucalyptus forests and woodland habitats of the eastern and southeast regions of Australia. The koalas we track in partnership with San Diego Wildlife Alliance reside on St. Bees Island, which lies about 31 miles (50 km) off the coast of Makay, Queensland.
