Tehree says she is an ordinary Australian, though she was a recipient of the Senior Australian of the Year Award in 2004. In this story, Tehree talks about her passion for wildlife from an early age leading to her founding Jirrahlinga Koala and Wildlife Sanctuary with her partner Hamish. The sanctuary has provided work opportunities and enrichment to people living with disabilities and the elderly.
