Koala is confused after it's home is cut down

Clear-cutting an entire area can be devastating to animals that depend upon a certain type of tree to survive. Koalas eat mainly the leaves of the eucalyptus tree and can starve to death without it.

Koalas would have been moved out of their homes in preparation for planned logging activities," said WIRES ( Wildlife Information, Rescue and Education Service) general manager, Leanne Taylor.It is common for koalas to roam back to their home range afterwards and become confused to find nothing there. A worker noticed a koala had been sitting stationary in broad daylight on top of wood piles for over an hour.
