Campaigners Fight for Koalas
Due to decreased numbers, conservationists are urging The Australian Government to place the Koala on The Endangered Species List. CNN wrote: “Millions have been killed since the arrival of European settlers in the 18th century. Numbers were slashed again during open hunting seasons in the early 20th century and in recent decades tens of thousands have died as a result of habitat destruction, disease — including Chlamydia and retrovirus — and dog attacks”. Minister Burke is expected to make a decision by April 30th, 2012.
