Best Answer

Koalas are not officially endangered.

Their status varies from "secure" or "common" in many areas to "vulnerable" in localised regions such as southeast Queensland.

Despite urging by conservation groups since around 1992, Australia's federal government has refused to list the koala as vulnerable. Even international conservation groups cannot agree. Meanwhile, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) lists the koala as "potentially vulnerable", while the US Endangered Species Act lists the koala as "threatened".

Why would be koala culling be bad?

Koalas would become an endangered species and die out! That is worse than some people think! Koalas are cute (in my opinion) and haven't done anything to deserve to be killed. People just think the koalas fur is nice and they could become rich by selling it. Then they are rich and happy while the koalas life is at stake!
