Everybody
knows the koala, that sweet Australian animal that resembles a teddy bear.
Although koalas look like toys, they are actually strong climbers and spend
their days in the treetops. Mother koalas carry their babies around from tree
to tree in a pouch, or pocket, on their stomach. Although there were millions
of koalas in Australia in the past, they are now a protected species of animal.
As a result of human population growth, deforestation and hunting, the number
of koalas has declined.
The growth
of human population is growth significantly. It means many people will need
land for building their house. Time by the
time Koalas will be lost their habitat to live. People make an empty land by
deforesting many forests. They chop many tree and there is no reforestation, it
will decrease a number of koalas in Australia because their habitat is
destroyed by the people, the government still can not solve this problem
clearly. the number of koalas is also deacrese extreamly by Ilegal Hunters, they
hunt many koalas and they sell in the black market for high price, and usually
the collectors wanted to buy a head of koala for decorate their room. Australian
government had make a movement to prevent the dicelined a number of koalas by protected
them but it is still can’t prevent this problem effectively.
