The disease is estimated to have infected more than half of some koala populations, and is one of many reasons contributing to the animal’s decline.

Shano was the first of 200 koalas to receive a chlamydia vaccine that may help curb an epidemic that is ravaging koala populations across Australia

Researchers said that about 400 koalas will be vaccinated against chlamydia, an STD that causes bladder infections and infertility in the animals.

Koala numbers are plunging in the wild, and at least part of the problem is a chlamydia epidemic among the marsupials. As a result, wildlife authorities in Australia have...

Palace will become very secure because there will be a moat around it. literally. appearing to say all the talk and no action from leaders is, quote, irritating. our next guest is trying to get the world to pay attention to the failure of australian leaders to address the rises by raising over $150,000 to display this giant billboard in times square. it reads, "for a limited time come to australia to cuddle a koala before we make them instinct." the man behind that message is comedian and host o...

By 2:45 p.m. he changed his mind. something happened between 9:45 and 2:45 p.m. it could have been the queen was disgruntled. or maybe it was a giant flaming koala in times square. >> were showing the image right now of the kangaroo on fire. let me ask you, why use -- its dark humor, but its humor. but use humor? does it make it easier for politicians to dismiss your points by saying youre not taking climate change seriously or on the contrary, does humor grab people by the shirt collar and make...

Bushfires, loss of habitat and human liberty are all threatening australias well—known species. such is the koala. but scientists hope to save them by mapping out and sharing their genetic make—up. she name sequence he gives into the immune system, the diet and population diversity, a that has already shown success with tasmanian devil, an endangered marsupial. earlier i asked doctor carolyn hogg from the school of life and environmental sciences at the university of sydney why this genomics...

Type of species, and the third pillar is really the diversity of genes, and this has been a really hard one for us to get an understanding of because the technology did not exist, but when the human genome was published over 20 years ago, that really opened up a whole new field of science that we are now applying to a suite of different plants and animals around the world. how can genome sequencing help the koala survive? one of the things is when we had the bushfires two years ago here in new s...
