Sharing a photo of a Koala calendar I received from my Australian friend two years ago.
This photo should fit in with Alibb’s Alphabet Crazy challenge. As time allows I participate as often as possible, without posting numerous posts to overwhelm the site.
Overall stress on the livelihood of these animals is increasing as threats caused by man made activities shrink and impact their natural environment.
Conservation measures will ultimately be necessary to save their habitat and population. Although they have unique adaptations for living in their habitat of eucalyptus forests, wildlife in general cannot adapt as fast as the rapid changes brought on by mankind.
Although the koala does not live in the United States, it is in fact listed under the United States Endangered Species Act as threatened.

I love this type of animal. Great post!
Thanks, it is a special calendar.
There are so many animals we are losing.
Yes, too many, and it could have been prevented.
it can all be prevented. so many things we can do.
You do so much, so many birds are safe in your back yard!
If we could find better ways of protecting them. Such cuties, sad their existence is threatened.
Some are bing hunted. Others are losing their homes due to construction. So sad.
I agree with vidocka. Koalas are someof my favorite animals, even though I have never seen them in person.
They look like stuffed animals, so cute!
I saw them while I was holidaying in Australia. I picked up a whole bunch of tiny fridge magnets with Koala
I also have a lot of magnets on the frig. Cute animals.
What a lovely koala. It’s really sad that so many animals are at risk.
It is heartbreaking to think about these animals. But I get to look at 12 of these on the calendar. The perfect gift. Thanks.
Even though this was two years ago, I still look at the photos. 🙂
Koala is such a lovely animal, so pity they are endangered.
I agree and would love to save all of them.
This animal is so cute, dear Pamela … I had it on my luck helmet … and she brought it to me
Thanks Lado, I love the calendar I received as a gift.
