Los Angeles Zoo’s koala, Katherine, was moved to Palm Beach Zoo in Florida as part of a species survival plan.

In a video posted by the zoo to YouTube on August 16, keeper Joshua Sisk prepared Katherine for her cross-country flight.

Sisk said Katherine would be a “great match” for male koala Oz at Palm Beach Zoo.

One of the zoo’s keepers was shown packing a “lunch” for Katherine’s 12-hour journey: gum leaves. It was hoped Katherine would spend her flight sleeping. Credit: Los Angeles Zoo via Storyful
