Practice Reading: Fill in the Blanks (Dropdown) ID: #48352 Koala
Instructions
Among  those  deeply  committed  to  environmental  protection,  a  persistent  debate  revolves  around  whether  the  koala  should  be  officially    as  a  threatened  species  in  Australia.  The  situation  resembles  a  seesaw    in  certain  regions  like  Queensland,  a    number  of  koalas  grapple  with  diseases,  while  in  the  southern  territories  of  Victoria  and  South  Australia,  their  population  has  seemingly  exploded.  The    for  labeling  a  species  as  'vulnerable'  dictate  a  population  decrease  of  more  than  30  percent  in  the  last  three  generations  or  ten  years.  However,  applying  this  rule  to  koalas  introduces  a  nuanced  complexity,  as  the  surge  in  Victoria  seems  to  offset  the  decline    in  Queensland.  The  challenge  is  further  compounded  by  the  recognition  that  northern  koalas  and  their  southern  counterparts  represent  distinct  branches  of  the  koala  family  tree.  In  response  to  this  intricacy,  authorities  have  chosen  a  bifurcated  approach    koalas  in  New  South  Wales,  the  ACT,  and  Queensland  are  officially  recognized  as  'Vulnerable,'  whereas  those  in  Victoria  and  South  Australia  are  not    at  risk.
