Born the size of a jelly bean, koalas travel to their mother's pouch where they stay until they are old enough to cling onto her back.
Veterinary screening and health evaluation of Fijian Crested Iguanas
Brachylophus vitiensis
The Taronga Wildlife Hospital is providing veterinary support to the National Trust for Fiji to implement the IUCN Fijian Crested Iguana Recovery Plan. This project involves the translocation of 80 to 100 critically endangered Fijian Crested Iguanas from Yadua Taba to Namenalala to ensure a second colony will be secure from any single catastrophic event, such as disease or natural disaster. This project ensures veterinary screening and health evaluations required to meet the IUCN Guidelines for Reintroductions (1998).
