Honestly, except for massive preservation efforts, Koalas are probably going to where Dodos went before them. But not to worry, they'll be in very good company

Honestly, except for massive preservation efforts, Koalas are probably going to where Dodos went before them. But not to worry, they'll be in very good company. The predatory ecosystem exploitation we've been living and breathing for quite some time now has put incredible strains on our whole life support system. Biological systems are amazingly resilient and this resilience has hidden much of the damage that has accumulated. Unfortunately this has just made us disregard many of the warning signs that are flashing in front of our eyes. Food webs are collapsing, ecosystems get more and more fragmented and with increased fragmentation, failure in one part cannot be compensated for in another part. Koalas are cute, so they get the publicity. That's good I guess. But let's not pretend that it's only koalas. It's everything.
