"Australia's koalas are running out of time — habitat loss, disease, and worsening bushfires pushing them toward extinction. Following the 2020 devastating Kangaroo Island fires, years of research and determination met disaster — and gave conservationists their first shot at a genetic rescue.

Navigating red tape and biosecurity hurdles, they brought genetically diverse wild koalas from Victoria to breed with Cleland's isolated, disease-free population — and against the odds, healthy hybrid joeys were born, offering a blueprint to save the species. Featuring Dr Jane Goodall in one of her final interviews, this is an urgent, emotional, and ultimately hopeful story of catastrophe, chance, and human determination converging to change the fate of an Australian icon."
