There's big news from Longleat Safari Park! Longleat has teamed up with the Southern Australian Government and Cleland Wildlife Park to launch an international and awareness programme for Australia’s most iconic species – the koala! Six Southern koalas will be heading to the UK from Adelaide to join Longleat. The safari park will act as aEuropean hub for the newly-created International Koala Centre of Excellence (IKCE). The IKCE is working to enhance the management and conservation of koalas to ensure their long term future in the wild. The koalas are coming in the Spring of 2019.
