Koalas Face Extinction as "Functional"

Koala is a cute and cute animal species native to Australia, herbivorous and living in trees! One of the reasons that makes it so valuable to our planet is that it is the only living representative of its family. In other words, as long as we continue to harm nature in this way, no living thing will remain from the family of tiny koalas. Scientists state that koalas are getting closer to being wiped out from our planet with each passing day.

1. According to scientists, the number of koalas has dropped so much that we can now say that they are "functionally extinct." When it comes to "functional exhaustion"; It is meant that a species cannot affect its environment, the number of living adults decreases, and the remaining small number of adult animals die from genetic diseases.

2.Australian Koala Foundation says there are currently almost 80,000 left in the wild Actually, this number may not be that small when you think about it, but 80,000 koalas is quite insufficient for the continuity of a new generation.

3.According to the Foundation, 41 of the 128 federal settings known as koala habitats no longer have any koalas. Koalas tend to change habitats and navigate the environment. While this makes them difficult to track, scientists are sure that the total number of koalas on our planet is in sharp decline

4.Koalas are dying rapidly from deforestation and temperature changes resulting from global warming. According to recent research, thousands of koalas died of thirst due to the heat wave that affected Australia last year.
