They do come down to the ground and move from tree to tree regularly, to find new territory, to find mates, or when they are disturbed.\u00a0 They also don&#8217;t just live in large bushland areas &#8211; they live in urban areas too. As a result koalas need to cross roads, and this can be very dangerous! Koalas are much more active during the breeding season, which is between July to February, with a peak in October and November. So being extra aware while driving particularly during these months, can save a life &#8211; or two.<\/p><p>Wildlife Movement Solutions (or WMS) is the collective term for infrastructure that assists the safe movement of wildlife through the landscape. WMS for koalas is an essential component in urban areas where koalas are known to occur. Koala fencing, escape poles, fauna underpasses and overpasses, interactive wildlife signs, refuge poles and climb-outs are all examples of WMS. As a community it is our duty to demand that these types of structures are incorporated into new and existing roads where they are needed.

Walking your dog without a leash, especially in bushland, is also a recipe for disaster for any koala that may be moving along the ground. Being a responsible dog owner means being responsible with how you manage and with how you train your dog. For example, restrain your dog at night (eg indoors, in a kennel or in a small section of your yard) so koalas can freely and safely pass through your backyard; keep your dog on leash <i>and<\/i> under your full control when walking in the bush, and desensitise your dog to wildlife (through <span style=\"color: #008000;\"><a style=\"color: #008000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.leaveit.com.au\/free-resources\/leave-it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">specialised training<\/a><\/span>).
