The little amount of koalas in Australia

Koalas is the first thing that comes in to my mind when someone mention Australia. I think they’re the cutest animals of all time.

A lot of people believe that Koala is a bear, but that isn’t true! Actually koalas aren’t even related to bears, they are related to kangaroo and the wombat. Koala’s are different depending where they’re from. A koala from the southern Australia will most likely have longer and shaggier fur in order to keep them warm in the cold winters. The koalas from the north has less and more fine fur to help them from the subtropical weather.

We’ve all heard about the koalas, but how many are there?

Only less than a decade the population of Koalas in Australia has fallen with 90%. Now there are only 7000 koalas in the wild, this is caused by the destruction of the natural habitat by the koalas. The natural habitat has been taking away from the koalas, this causes logging, city development and diseases. Today the koalas habitat is near the road which has resulted a lot of road kills.But luckily these species hasn’t become extinct - But we just got to be more careful and take more responsibility to the all animals in the world.
