Koala Bears, functionally extinct ??

[westcoastGT]

This isnt good

A report claims koalas are 'functionally extinct' – but what does that mean?

I don't doubt it , the human race is obsessed with greed and nothing stands it it's way.

Our economy is based on immigration, the ponsey scheme keeps spinning. We have a people industry. See a tree cut it down, find some water pollute it. On that note. Littering is something the kids think is cool!!!

If there were fewer of us by about 80%, the world would rebound to wilderness and its wildlife with it. We need to raise the life style of everybody, while increasing the educational opportunities and emancipation of girls so that they do more with their lives than simply breed starting in their early teens.

Look at Europe as a model: the indigenous population has started into population decline (better said, reduction). Why? Because of prosperity and the equality of women. Women have better things to do than simply breed. They have one or two children and their careers and interests and the time to enjoy them.

But to save the planet, we first need to unite through a "First World Congress", and establish a United Nation States of Earth: along the US model of democratically elected representation: with all the rights and powers granted to the nation/states that are not given to the federal government. That way, all borders are sovereign yet freedom of movement exists. Only by uniting and providing equal representation and protection and support for the common good, will we establish the unity which will save our natural resources (and deliver us from the double mortal threats of nuclear destruction and over population).

Don’t forget the hand warmers. They have a strange look on their faces when I put them on. I even use them for dusting and polishing the car.
Drop Bear - One of our favourite cloths!

Probably a left wing, tree huggers beat up.
If this was the actual case it would be headline news on every medium here, but it took a Canadian half a world away to highlight a plight that is apparently in my own backyard, many thanks @westcoastGT.

We have them in training to defend themselves Downunder.

Cute when angry

Too many being turned into cleaning cloths?

''Functionally Extinct " is it referring to the contraceptive treatment they have been doing on some colonies to stop them breeding and eating themselves out of gum leaves in a particular area. I remember some had to be relocated otherwise they faced starvation and in close proximity to one another may get that Chlamydia virus and get stressed.There was even mention of culling as last resort but there would be a nation wide uproar if that was carried out.

Does culling equate to cheaper cleaning cloths?

Technically the koalas are the tree huggers are they not? But I agree with you nonetheless.

Apparently Koalas are a species that can't be relocated successfully. They colonies an area and when relocated perish. I think that is why there is some concern over their future. Please confirm if I've heard this incorrectly.

How much can a koala bare?

Damned if we do, and I'd have to Lodge a complaint to. So shut your Trap and Pelt up.
