Phys.Org: A changing climate means that by 2070 koalas may no longer call large parts of inland Australia home, researchers have found. Using a detailed ecological model, the University of Melbourne study shows hotter temperatures and altered rainfall patterns will make it much more difficult for koalas to get the water they need - making inland populations vulnerable to heat-stress.
The researchers mapped potential koala habitats in 2070 by using information about koala behaviour, physiology, body size,...
