So sad  :'(

Chlamydia could make koalas extinct. Can a vaccine save them in time?

they just shot a load of them in Vic due to a lack of food, surely moving them would make more sense

How much stress though  :-\.  MayB a cull is necessary for many animals World Wide due to lack of a food source.

Is this because of the wildfires but also because many of them have suffered burns? I think I read about how the decision to shoot them from helicopters was drawing much criticism.
