Koala: The Extraordinary Life of an Enigmatic Animal

Danielle Clode
4.9/5 (21927 ratings)
Description:Koalas had regularly appeared in Australian biologist Danielle Clode’s backyard, but when a threatening bushfire turned her attention to them, Clode soon realized that there was a lot to learn about these popular-yet-enigmatic animals. So she embarked on a journey through evolutionary biology, natural history, and ecology to understand where they had come from and what their future holds.Starting with fossils of ancient giant koalas, including unexpected new findings, she explores why this species is the lone survivor of a once-diverse family of uniquely Australian marsupials. In vivid, descriptive prose, she investigates their endearing characters and their physiology, from pouches to the gut bacteria that bonds them to a few particular gum-tree species. Now, as koalas are in serious danger from human environmental destruction and explosive wildfires, Clode reflects on how we can protect this iconic and beloved species and the distinctive trees they depend on.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
