Absolutely gutted by this news. My heart aches for these koalas. We are in a climate emergency. “Functional extinction is when a population becomes so limited that they no longer play a significant role in their ecosystem and the population becomes no longer viable.”https://twitter.com/billmckibben/status/1198375629638586373 …

A thousand koalas were killed in Australia's bushfires, and 80% of their habitat is gone. One expert says they are 'functionally extinct.' And yet big banks lend big money to big oil--more every year https://www.forbes.com/sites/trevornace/2019/11/23/koalas-functionally-extinct-after-australia-bushfires-destroy-80-of-their-habitat/#68db5a167bad …

  Update on koalas: "It's unlikely koalas will be going extinct in Australia overall, however we're seeing more local populations being wiped out. Still heartbreaking "https://twitter.com/luckytran/status/1198394587808710656 …

  Hey #climatetwitter: On koala's being "functionally extinct", I wanted to highlight the science. TLDR; It's unlikely koalas will be going extinct in Australia overall, however we're seeing more local populations being wiped out. Still heartbreaking https://www.newscientist.com/article/2203655-no-koalas-are-not-functionally-extinct-but-they-are-in-trouble/#ixzz669JONx8Ohttps://www.newscientist.com/article/2203655-no-koalas-are-not-functionally-extinct-but-they-are-in-trouble/ …

  Highly disputed article. Koalas are vulnerable, not extinct and the fight to save them is not over! See this research and education page - details threats + also solutions! Plus list of articles.https://www.friendsofthekoala.org/learn/education-and-research/#threats-to-koalas …
