Koalas: When Stupidity is a Survival Strategy

High up in the trees of Australia lives an animal that consumes so many toxins that it has few natural predators. The Koala.

Forgot to mention that Koalas tiny peanut brains are also smooth, making them even less intelligent than their tiny sized brains would suggest. Extinction seems inevitable for Koalas though, they live on highly flammable trees (Bark falls to create perfect tinder and they release literal fireballs when they get too hot.) in one of the hottest places on earth and are way too dumb to ever be able to avoid a forest fire effectively if they even notice that the trees are on fire in the first place...

@@linusandersen3587 Do you propose I should remove the Brazilian prime minister (the advocate for forest clearance) from office? I'm sorry I can't do that. And Brazilians seem to like him just fine. After all, the forest is cleared for agriculture so they can feed their families and ensure their children's education. It's like the Indonesians and the orangutan. They should be poor but keep the forest while the Brits and the Muricans are so rich they don't know what to buy next. I sometimes wonder if western conservationists are preaching to the choir. Conservationist: "Animal A will soon be extinct". Me: "Yeah, why?". Conservationist: "It's parts are ordered by Chinese millionaires to prepare traditional medicine and viagra". Me:" So, what do you expect ME to do about it, exactly? Can I just approach Bill Gates or Elon Musk and tell them what to do? They have security guards you know. I'm sure Chinese millionaires have theirs too".

It's amazing humans spend 16 hours of their day trying to reproduce or get in a relationship or stay in a relationship. All humans are going to cease to exist eventually. Nothing that happened in the last 40 years is going to be remembered 10,000 years from now. If we make it that long.

It's actually a pretty smart plan evolutionarily speaking, no competition for food or housing sources, no natural predators because their diet makes them unpalatable. They just didn't count on Man. 🤪 although to be fair, most life on this planet has been largely unprepared for our species 😆 sigh... poor bastards.
