Koalas are very good for the enviroment, they also boost the economy because of all the people that want to experience their cuddlyness
No. Koalas do not misbehave. They are wild animals which behave perfectly appropriately when left within their natural environment.
Koalas have adapted to changes in their environment as people build close to them, their colonies are getting smaller and more isolated.
No. People do not keep pet koalas. This is prohibited, as they are a protected species. Some fauna sanctuaries keep koalas, and some people hold licences to care for injured wildlife (such as koalas) until they are ready to be released back into their natural environment.
Koalas are neither helpful nor unhelpful. They do not contribute anything of significance to their environment, and are certainly not a keystone species; neither are they a pest or invasive.
i have cared for no sick koalas, but good luck to all who do
the are good because they help earth
Koalas already have everything the need to survive. They are equipped with numerous adaptations that enable them to survive, and tribe, in their habitat. Refer to the related question below for these adaptations.However, few animals as able to survive man's interference in their environment. The koala is no exception. If man continues to degrade the koala's environment, koalas are unlikely to survive.
Kangaroos, koalas, and good steak!
Koalas usually mind their own business. Their behaviour is neither 'good' not 'bad', but typical of wild animals. Makes become more aggressive around mating season, but generally, koalas are placid animals which avoid encounters with people.
The wind in the environment where koalas live is just like everywhere else - variable. It fluctuates between absolutely calm, to normal breeze, right up to cyclonic strength.
Koalas do not actively employ camouflage, but their natural colouring and tendency to stay still for hours does help them to camouflage. Koalas are various shades of light to darker grey, with a cream belly. When they nestle high in gum trees, the light filtering past the gum leaves has a dappled look on both the koalas and the gum branches which are similarly dappled. This makes it much more difficult to detect koalas in trees.
Yes. While many measures are being taken to try to preserve koalas, ultimately humans do hurt koalas, both directly and indirectly. Some people are simply cruel, and there are numerous cases each year of koalas being shot. Humans indirectly hurt koalas by destroying their habitat for housing or commercial developments. Humans also hurt koalas indirectly by not carefully supervising their domestic pets. Dogs are one of the main killers of koalas in urban areas.
