Australia lists Koalas as endangered species - BBC News

- Опубліковано 10 лют 2022
- Australia has listed the koala as an endangered species across most of its east coast, after a dramatic decline in numbers.
The once-thriving marsupial has been ravaged by land clearing, bushfires, drought, disease and other threats.
Australia has been urged to do more to protect koalas from rapidly diminishing habitats and climate change.
The species was listed as "vulnerable" in those states and territory only in 2012. Despite the rapid deterioration, governments have been accused of dithering.

So SAD. They're such gorgeous creatures.
They're not as cute and cuddly when you have to live with them, especially when they're mating and super territorial.
@@DV-zv4ox How dare you speak illy of the dear koalas.
@@DV-zv4ox They don't exist for us to cuddle them. They are just animals living their lives as well as they can but they need for us to stop killing their trees.
@@tracesprite6078 It's an expression, mate. If you lived with/around them you'd understand.
@@DV-zv4ox Nevertheless,they deserve to live and thrive in their own habitat,not be mindlessly destroyed by changes to their environment. I got to hold one at a sanctuary as a tourist,but I never believed that was the purpose of their existence.
I'm in Puerto Rico and I'm DEVASTATED! Every year more and more join the list... What have we done to our home? 😓
@Normal As Come over and make me.
@Normal As Troll
@Normal As Oh yes,tell us about this oh-so-adult life you lead then. Scratch beneath the surface and people who go around telling others to "grow up" do tend to have things in their closet they'd rather not let the world know about,so so much for their shining example. I'd rather be a big kid,thanks. I could never stand becoming as anal as that,anyway.
That's capitalism for ya mate
Ohh nooo! Those dang fires played a huge part of this!! Thank goodness that there are a bunch of specimens in captivity at the moment so we can potentially repopulate the species with supplemental animals.
Yea let's just keep killing their world and captivate them like we do ourselves! Perfect!
There's no where to repopulate to. The NSW gov is clearing land faster than the Amazon
"Believe in yourself. You are braver than you think, more talented than you know, and capable of more than you imagine."
Maybe if they didn't allow them to be plowed down along with the forests with complete disregard for life this wouldn't be happening 😤💔😡
Australian government MUST to do something to prevent and protect these amazing animals from danger like a bushfire this tragedy can’t happen again!!!!!!!!
I was given a toy koala beanie baby when I was born, I still have it to this day, I would find it extremely sad if they were made extinct
A bot replied to two bots below. Glitches I guess
Why are bots posting the same comments?
This
is
the
Matrix
Bots either do
1: copy comments with many likes
Or 2: spam the one same comment on every video
They want you to click on their profiles for whatever scam they got going on.
Oh... wonderful animals...#AlwaysHelpProtectAnimals 💚🐨.Great respect 🕊️
Never thought I'd live in a time to see news like this...very sad
Not enough humans in this world is caring about the wildlife and what they're doing to it, to caught up in their own come up and self preservation, but doing so is only going to cause more harm then they could ever imagine.
Property is so expensive in Australia anything within a 50km radius of any major cities is unaffordable. You're looking at 1 million for a House minimum.
Omg! This is super sad!!!!
How odd, if you keep clearing Koala habitats for new housing, the Koala' s start dying out, who could have seen this coming right !!
Exactly !!! 👏
Koalas were thriving in Australia before European infestation took hold
They are so cute. Sad to hear this news.
Awwww cutie pie 🥰
Thanks Gladys
It's weird that they survived so long without upper brain function. If you put a leaf on a plate in front of it, it wouldn't even know what to do with it. I doubt they're going to go extinct though. humans love them too much.
apparently they have evolved smaller and less active brains to conserve energy from their low energy diet. they are wombats on their way to becoming actual plush toys. xD
I think the people who love them are not the ones making decisions about clearing land or committing arson.
Koalas are weird but they ain't no bear?
Save the koalas
I don’t see anyone hating on koalas and yet they’re dying... we are hopeless
Tank you for are information
Oh noo :(
can humans not fuck up things????? good god! -_-
Poor koalas 😭 l hope they recover
No one cares
@@pedromeowgisuparperv2844 can you just STFU?????????
Noooo koalas are my favourite animals 🐨🐨😭😭
Koalas are incredibly difficult to rehabilitate in a new environment. They have acquired taste. There are many species of the eucalyptus trees, but koalas growing up eating a few species of the tree leaves will only want to eat the same species, and if you present different species of the same tree genera, they will refuse to eat and instead prefer to starve to death. This made the koalas chained to their original habitats. There are exceptions but this is the majority cases. This is why the habitat destruction is extremely damaging. With the government totally inept at the koalas' situation, koalas are going to be extinct eventually, at least technically i.e. no more wild koalas. It's a preventable catastrophe.
we MUST save the koalas!!
Awwwwwww 🐨 ❤
It's called burning to death and then starving
So sad 🥺
no not the koala
Independent, sane, thinking people are going on the endangered list soon.
Ouch
The bbc needs to talk about Ecosia they are a search engine that plants tress
I hope that they are not actually extinct
Koalas weren't endangered before Europeans showed up, just saying 🙄
I was told that they only eat eucalyptus it must have really fresh breath just saying
you gotta look at what you have as resources and make their habitat fire proof, i know how so its possible...kmt
Most of the damage is humans clearing their habitats for new housing developments, fire a MUCH smaller issue.
Most koalas have STDs
They often have chlamydia but scientists are trying to tackle that.

Wild fires - bbq koala anyone?
Sadly yes koalas are Endangered but people are keeping their numbers up
Ok
According to a documentary series "Australia in Colour" Koalas were hunted to provide fur for the fashion industry
BS, the hunting of Koalas have been banned for almost 100 years in Australia
Quolls were once hunted for their furs. Dogs and cats kill them, out compete them, their prey habitat is encroached, cleared, reduced. I've seen a lot of aussie rural countryside but I have never in my life seen a Quoll in the wild. You can drive for days past farmland, lucky if it takes more than an hour to pass through state forest and natural forest is still up for logging, clearing and agribusiness.
why forest fires, bbc?
Omggggggg noooooo
我 保證 不是 故意的
😭😭😭
Another bad omen...

Jjkiooooooooo
恭喜恭喜
讓美國推薦
Start allowing them to be kept as pet's, start a programme to encourage people to breed them in their garden tree's, in 20 years and their species will not be in serious abatement.
讓美國推薦恐怖組織
The koala is gonna become Australia's Panda. Two useless animals too dumb to survive without human intervention
It’s because of humans that they need human intervention to survive
@@thoda_pyo_6946 that is true. I was thinking as I wrote that. That maybe their habitats are changing so fast because of us they cant adapt
I think you're the dumb one here. They managed to survive 35 MILLION years without humans first of all. And it's because of dumb humans that they're becoming extinct.
Another beautiful animal dying out because of human overpopulation.
我不是在大選頂Trump
We love Koala BBQ.
what! how about we love 小肉肉 烤肉 ... now quickly get your arse on that grill - 让我说你什么好。。。你呀， 真是野蛮人/讨厌！
我不是支持TRUMP 我不知道美國大選了sorry 恭喜
關於窩未來的學院之旅,我不構成任何威脅,我對國家沒興趣,我對中國同樣沒有興趣..
Evolution and natural selection: sorry fur balls end of the line
Humans: NOOOOOOO!!!!
But...forest fires killed a lot of them, which could've been prevented. And I'm not even talking about climate change, the aboriginals used to burn back parts of forests in controlled amounts, so that if a forest fire happened it wouldn't cover such a wide area if it spread quickly, and wouldn't cause the damage that it did to both wildlife and Australian people's homes. It's called fire-farming, it's quite fascinating
Though considering how adorable people tend to find koalas, I think they'll be given similar treatment to giant pandas 😆
If only the fine people of Australia would just stop hunting the Koalas for its meat, I'm sure they will bounce back. The dingo may still be around if that species weren't hunted (mostly hunted and eaten as puppies only hours old) to it's end.
Wow. You sure about those statements? Cuz uh... You sound stupid af to anyone who knows these things. The Dingo wasn't hunted for food, it was hunted to protect livestock, and it was never eaten, and absolutely no one is hunting Koala for meat, they have Clamydia you dunce.
What are you talking about the dingo is still around, also I've not heard of anyone hunting koalas.
@@lexruptor It was just a playful troll.
They were thriving before Europeans invaded much like the Tasmanian tiger
Koala meat tastes awful because of the eucalyptus leaf toxins
Ok, *but,* and here me out here, let the population get low enough, but not too low, to wipe out Koala Clamydia, but keep it still high enough to bounce back first. Think about it, they're herbivores, right? And captive bred, while not super happy, helps population growth. Look at those things, and tell me you don't want one? Why wouldn't you, they're adorable. But why don't people usually have em as pets? Clamydia. Remove that, which can be done easiest with a lower population, and bam. They become basically designer pets. I know there are a lot of ethical issues here, but bottom line it would work to bolster their population.
They eat only Manna Gum and Blue Gum new leaves. Good luck with that, they need an awful lot to get any food value so they're basically painted into the same dietary corner as Sloths.
And not to mention replanting gums which would take up to 5 to 10 years to mature enough to feed them. Our bushfires have a lot to answer for......
Koalas are so dumb that they will not eat eucalyptus leaves from off of a table because it's not a tree. They have evolved to ingest only the most nutrient- deficient plant. They literally have smooth brains.
It's only natural that they go the same way as the pandas.
You’re dumb
