Koalas, Australia

A koala is seen at Cape Otway, Victoria, Australia.Over-abundance of koalas at Cape Otway is a difficult, long-term issue brought about by their love of Manna Gums, their reluctance to change food source, favourable climatic conditions and an absence of predators.

Unsustainable koala densities and subsequent over-browsing of the habitat at Cape Otway had resulted in many of the koalas’ preferred food trees dying. Without a sufficient food source to sustain them, the health of the koala population can quickly decline, resulting in koala welfare issues.Photo: Paul Hilton / Earth Tree Images
