Note a koala is a marsupial not a bear.

This is a very interesting article and gives plenty food for thought I am not scientific enough to comment on it in depth.But I do know that there has been a gradual change in the weather in the UK since the 1950s.When I was a young lad in the winter in my home town we had such heavy snow falls that council workers were involved around the clock working for days on end trying to keep the roads open. Then for several years in a row we have hardly had any heavy snow at all.This resulteed in several ski lift companies going into recievership.What ever the cause it's in our best intterest's we find out as soon as possible.
