About: "17 years ago we discovered a non-intrusive method of identifying
koalas by the natural markings in the nostrils."

Actually I find it quite easy to identify a koala. The only thing that looks
similar is a wombat and they are quite different.

  Hi Birding-ausers
  I know a lot of you out there are interested in mammals and other
  wildlife besides birds, and seeing as things are a bit slow on the bird
  front at the moment I thought I'd share this with you:
  17 years ago we discovered a non-intrusive method of identifying koalas
  by the natural markings in the nostrils.  You may have already heard of
  this, or even noticed the same yourself.  Many koala conservation
  groups, carers and wildlife sanctuaries are already using the method.
  [1][9]https://echidnawalkabout.wordpress.com/2015/07/14/how-to-identify-ko
  alas-by-their-nose-patterns
  We believe that use of this method in the wild will be of value to:
    * koala protection groups as a citizen science research tool,
    * carers for monitoring released animals,
    * wildlife parks, zoos and sanctuaries for public education
    * scientific researchers as a cost-saving and low-danger/low-stress
      method for wild koalas.

  We are making this method freely available in the interests of
  improving koala conservation.
  The method was presented to the scientific conference [2]Pathways:
  Human Dimensions of Wildlife Management in October 2014
  ([3]presentation pdf), and an article is due for publication in The
  Wildlife Society's (USA) "The Wildlife Professional" magazine this
  winter.  Actual scientific publication of the method is underway (but
  this takes time!).

  Thanks for your time!  Please feel free to share this with anyone
  interested in koalas.
