Over Time Decay of Cortisol Metabolites in Faecal Pellets of Koalas in Central Queensland

SIMPLE SUMMARY: Faecal cortisol metabolites (FCMs) are a useful, non-invasive tool for the assessment of stress in koalas. However, FCM stability after defecation is a critical issue. Therefore, we exposed faecal pellets of koalas to three different environmental conditions and measured FCMs with th...
