Before the images were revealed, researchers had no proof that koalas would use the kind of smaller-scale log bridges that council had installed.
A camera has captured proof of koalas using a purpose-built bridge to cross a suburban road, in footage that is being celebrated by one of Queensland’s leading koala researchers.
The bridge allows koalas to travel to and from the koala habitat of Whites Hill Reserve, but the road below is a dangerous zone for the protected mammals. The log bridge over Boundary Road was built in 2022 after 20 koalas were killed by cars and trucks there.“It is very hard to get images of koalas using these smaller-scale, man-made structures.”
There have ben more than 100 koala and possum movements over the city’s first-ever koala log bridge near the White Hill Reserve between Camp Hill and Coorparoo.
