Product Overview

Koalas: Slow Life in the Fast Lane reveals the usually hidden social and breeding behaviours of koalas, and showcases never-before-seen animal behaviour and new scientific breakthroughs. The central question the film asks is this: 'Can koalas live side by side with people in today's increasingly urbanised Australia?' The film explores this and answers 'yes, it is possible – but only with the help of science and conservation'.
