赖世雄中级美国英语Adorable Koalas in D

Koalas are considered an Australian national icon. These adorable tree-hugging animals feed on eucalyptus tree leaves. The problem is on average a koala destroys 13 pounds of the leaves to eat 2 pounds a day. Because of this, 5,000 koalas soon face starvation on Kangaroo Island in the south of Australia. 
The authorities are now considering shooting them to control the island's koala population explosion. However, animal activists suggest growing more trees. \"There aren't too many koalas. There are too few trees.\" They argue. Neighboring provinces have even recommended relocating some of the koalas to them. Most Australians feel that the authorities must do all they can to avoid killing the koalas for to do so would be a national disgrace.
