Griffith’s tips to protect wildlife
Social Marketing at Griffith leads a variety of projects focused on raising awareness about environmental conservation and supporting communities to take action in protecting Australia’s threatened and endangered species.
Their work is made possible through funding and support from governments, community organisations, and action groups.
One of their flagship brands is Wildlife Watcher, which strives to empower everyday people to become Koala champions.
Its website and social media pages provide a wealth of information, including fascinating Koala facts, practical conservation tips, downloadable resources, and even a fun online trivia game!
Beyond online efforts, Wildlife Watcher also engages directly with community through participation in local community events, offering educational materials and opportunities to learn more about Koala conservation.
As part of this ongoing effort, its especially important to protect koalas during their breeding season.
Koala Breeding Season: A Time for Extra Care From August to February koalas are on the move in search of mates and new habitats, of en putting them at risk—whether crossing roads or wandering into backyards.
Let’s keep them safe during this vulnerable time:
1. Drive with care especially from dusk to dawn.
2. Make your backyard and pool area wildlife-friendly by providing escape options.
3. Keep dogs indoors at night and provide them with wildlife avoidance skills. Discover more ways you can help koalas on wildlifewatcher.com.au.
