 The Characteristics Foods

Before I travelled to the UK last year, I thought that British food was just fish and chips, roast beef, apple pie, rice pudding and endless cups of tea. These foods are popular in Britain, but during my travels, I discovered that there is so much more to eating in the UK. People from all over the world have made their home in Britain, and they have brought with them their own food. Even in small towns, you can find Chinese, Indian and Italian restaurants, amongst others.

In UK, you do not only eat junk food as their traditional food, but also you can eat Asian, Chinese or others countries' foods. It depends on where you visit the regions in UK. if you visit the Asian region there, you will find traditional foods from Japanese, Chinese, or event Indonesia. The characteristics of its foods are more flavors, differences ingredients and more tasty. They are like sushi, kimchi, bakmie, capcay, kwetiau. The British foods' like junk food because they are very busy and want to get simple food to eat, but the Asian foods' is not simple but the taste more tasty because they use many flavors. so the taste is very different.

                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.

                During 1990 and 2010, the number of koalas in Queensland and New South Wales has declined, around 33 and 43 %.  The Australian Koala Foundation (AKF) approximating that just now there are 45 thousand to 90 thousand number of koalas in the woods. The human population growth is the main factor of koalas number decline, like the increase of cars, dogs, and the decrease land for koalas, because human always do housing development. Much of Koalas were eaten by dogs. Not a little of them were crashed by cars.

               Deforestation or a set up fire of forests and hunting are the next causes of Koalas number decline. They were hunted by human to make wool jackets by their body hairs of skin. Koalas eat and get their requirements  from the water humidity of  eucalyptus leaf. Koalas must  eat eucalyptus leaf at the least of  500 gram for alive, but the high temperature made eucalyptuses now in the threat of deforestation around 41 million hectare of 151.

The human population growth, deforestation and hunting are the factors the decline. If the conditions are not changed, maybe our grandchild in the next can't see that sweet animal.

The people built new building in green area such as a new hotel, apartment, and so on. The unique one of the characteristic of koalas is they spend their days in the treetops.

         Australian government, now make regulations on the prohibition of hunting koalas and create severe penalties for those who violate them.

The plan of this nature reserves already in the final process. they have prepared everything. Budget is already out, so the making of this nature reserve can already be done in next month.
