Acknowledgements
The authors would like to acknowledge the Kabi Kabi, Jinibara and Turrbal people, the Traditional Custodians of the land where this project was delivered, and pay the respects to their Elders past, present and emerging. We recognize their continuous and ongoing relationship with the land, waterways and sea. This project was significantly supported by the Queensland Government (Department of Transport and Main Roads), and specifically the Moreton Bay Rail project. We acknowledge, with thanks, the staff from Endeavour Veterinary Ecology and contractors who worked on the Moreton Bay Rail Koala Management Program. Without their hard work collecting and curating the vast spatial, veterinary, and genetic data set from the Moreton Bay Rail Koala Management Program, this research would not have been possible. LK was supported by an Australian Research Council Laureate Fellowship.
