Are koalas and panda bears in danger?
If, by "in danger" the question means "endangered", the answer is no.
Although koalas are currently not listed as "endangered", there are many factors which cause them to be in danger daily.
- Man is the koala's biggest threat, causing loss of food source and habitat loss.
- Increasing urbanisation results in more koalas being killed by cars, unsupervised dogs, bushfires and even directly by cruel and irresponsible people. In particular, koalas have a range of home trees, and their territory is often split by roads through new urban developments. As a result, when koalas try to wander from one of their home range trees to another, they are hit by cars.
- The chief threat to the koala is habitat loss. Koalas inhabit prime land which man has decided is better used for housing developments. Not only do the koalas lose their sources of shelter and food, they are subject to dog attacks and being hit by cars as suburbia extends further outwards. A prime example of this is southeast Queensland, where koala numbers have dropped to 60% less than what they were a decade ago, entirely due to increased development - and where they now face extinction by 2020.
- Koalas are also subject to the disease chlamydia, which affects the koalas' fertility, and eventually leads to their death. Currently, there is no cure for this disease. At the best of times, the koala is a slow breeder, usually producing just one joey a year.Although koalas are currently not listed as "endangered", there are many factors which cause them danger.

Pandas aren't energetic. They eat 12 hours of bamboo. And sometimes they sleep 16 hours. Their own system is to conserve energy because they can't digest all the nutrients in Bamboo like proper herbivores. Being omnivores, they hide, run, from other animals and avoid confrontation with other pandas, eat bamboo, which is all year around, and don't hunt because they would waste more energy than chewing bamboo. They are clumsy because they don't really do much physical activities like hunting, they can climb and run very fast. And they are big animals, like black bear and grizzly bear.
