However, Burke pointed out that the Australian government had spent at least $6.3 million on koala conservation efforts since 1996. Senators listed efforts that are already underway in Queensland—the construction of special koala bridges as well as fences along roads, to keep the animals out of harm's way.
Some people say that is not enough. “What we're doing at the moment is likely to drive this species to extinction,” Queensland University zoologist Bill Ellis said.
“Koalas are an iconic Australian animal,” Burke told Australians. “They hold a special place in the hearts of Australians.”
But it is a fact that if more isn't done to protect the koala, they might soon hold a place only in Australians' memories.
