After bushfires devastated Kangaroo Island's koala population, Kailas Wild went to help. This is the inspiring and sometimes confronting story of what happened next. An arborist by trade and conservationist at heart, when Kai heard that some of the injured koalas could only be reached by a tree climber, he drove 1500 kilometres to volunteer. Seven weeks later, he had participated in the rescue of over 100 koalas, become an international social media sensation and formed a special bond with a baby koala – Joey Kai. In words and pictures, The 99th Koala shares Kai's experience and introduces us to some of the koalas of Kangaroo Island. Sometimes tragic, sometimes hopeful, above all Kai’s story commemorates our unique wildlife, and demonstrates the power of one person trying to make a difference. ‘At a time when many people have felt helpless to act against the immensity of the fires or the threat of climate change, Kai's daily descriptions and videos of saving helpless animals have been a welcome dose of personal courage and deep humanity.’ ABC 'In words and photos that are impossible to look away from, Kai introduces some of the koalas on Kangaroo Island, painting a powerful picture of Australia's unique wildlife ... a gripping reminder of a summer that feels like it's in our country's distant memory.' Mamamia 'Harrowing, touching and uplifting.' The Courier Mail 'The 99th Koala is a plea for wildlife, it's a tribute to the volunteers who strive to save animals and rehabilitate them. It's an emotional rollercoaster that shows the devastation and damage ... but it's a tale of love and dedication.' Good Reading

Big cats such as lions, tigers, leopards, and jaguars fascinate us like few other creatures. They are enduring symbols of natural majesty and power. Yet despite the magnetic appeal of the big cats, their origins and evolutionary history remain poorly understood—and human activity threatens to put an end to the big cats’ glory. On the Prowl is a fully illustrated and approachable guide to the evolution of the big cats and what it portends for their conservation today. Mark Hallett and John M. Harris trace the origins of these iconic carnivores, venturing down the evolutionary pathways that produced the diversity of big cat species that have walked the earth. They place the evolution and paleobiology of these species in the context of ancient ecosystems and climates, explaining what made big cats such efficient predators and analyzing their competition with other animals. Hallett and Harris pay close attention to human impact, from the evidence of cave paintings and analysis of ancient extinctions up to present-day crises. Their engaging and carefully documented account is brought to life through Hallett’s detailed, vivid illustrations, based on the most recent research by leading paleontologists. Offering a fresh look at the rise of these majestic animals, On the Prowl also makes a powerful case for renewed efforts to protect big cats and their habitats before it is too late.

Hi my name is Janet I wrote the book KOALA DOWN UNDER while studying at The University of Wollongong. Kim Koala is a cheeky Koala bear only found in Australia her adventures though comical have an underlying message for children worldwide. I was stimulated to write the book for my daughters Donna and Michelle dec. Son Craig grandchildren Hannah and Thomas and little Alexander, my father George McCullagh dec. My uncle Ronald McCullagh dec. who both travelled from Scotland in 1951 after serving in the British navy in World War 2, they loved this great country as my mother Isabel dec. Aunt May myself my brothers RON and George, cousins Roy Sandra and Ken who is Ken kookaburra in the book still do. Also my good friend Lorraine Thomas Horne, Emma Emu, who sadly passed away from Melanoma cancer, my dear friend Wendy who is always there for me, my friend Trevor, Wallie Wombat and my New Zealand friend Joseph Rawiri Joe the Kangaroo Peter Bernardi a gentle Italian who drove a taxi, Peter Platypus. Kim Koala is taken from my niece Kym McCullagh Luccitti who is a beautiful girl extremely talented but quite cheeky. Ben the Aboriginie is taken from my late father in law Ben Thomas a school teacher with a heart of gold also my cousin Roys son Benjamin McCullagh Dennis a talented man also quite cheeky!I must mention the Japanese and other overseas students I met whilst studying at The University of Wollongong they loved Koala Down Under. Janet and the girls at Fernwood Gym Woonona for having faith in me and Koala Down Under. I hope the Adventures of Kim Koala will delight and help all children to understand anything is possible if you try hard enough and Australia is a country where our Aboriginal people are talented and gentle. Our overseas visitors must know the extreme heat in Australia must be addressed and how cold it becomes in our winters. Through Fire Flood and Drought this great country somehow survives, but we do need to address the SPF 30 plus warnings and SLIP SLOP SLAP all the time for our Melanoma cancer rate is sadly the highest in the world. A dollar from the sale of every Koala Down Under book will be be deposited in an account in the bank to be distributed between Kids Wish Foundation Aboriginal Childrens Education and the Cancer Council.
