San Diego Zoo: Home to the Largest Koala Colony Outside of Australia
Since 1925, the San Diego Zoo has housed the largest koala colony outside of Australia and China, currently housing 21 koalas. It’s also home to one of the most successful breeding programs outside of Australia. Most recently, San Diego’s efforts towards protecting koalas have increased, especially after wildfires in Australia, which were a major cause of their endangered status because they burned much of their habitat and natural resources. Several factors contributed to these fires’ impact: before them, koalas faced drought, land clearing, and disease, but the Black Summer fires were blamed for their official listing as endangered. As of 2026, the Australian government still lists koalas as endangered, and conservation efforts remain critical.
