Endangered species of animals

1. Endangered species of animals

Australian
Koalas

2.

• Australian koalas made in animal
list, threatened with extinction. In
Australia, there are only 80,000
koalas.
• These creatures are dying due to
changes in the environment and
because of the disease.

3.

• Koalas - an ancient family of bears
marsupial found only in Australia
living in eucalyptus trees and eating
their leaves.
• But their number has decreased:
them to only a few tens of thousands
left the continent.
• Now the population of koalas - only
80 thousand individuals.

4.

• Koala lives on a diet of eucalyptus plants. Many of these trees are
cleared every year. Thus, AKF relies on donations, sponsorship and
fundraising to finance its ongoing work.

5. Sifaka

6.

• Sifaka is a medium-sized primate
in one of the lemur families.
• They can jump up to 10
meters from one tree to the
next tree.

7.

• When sifakas are not in the
trees, they move on two legs in
small jumps. It looks strange, like
dancing.
• Sifakas make noises like
speaking. In the past,
people thought that they
were ghosts, not animals.

8.

• The loss of habitat due to active
cutting down and burning of
forests in the region and the
continued hunting of lemurs – the
main threats to the existence of
this amazing animal.
• But conservation centers
suggest that the population
was not in danger of
extinction.
