      Solution

      The infection rate of koala chlamydia reaches 70% in certain colonies in Queensland and New South Wales. The disease causes infertility and death, making it a leading threat alongside habitat loss, wildfires, and urban expansion. The vaccine is seen as a crucial intervention because antibiotics harm koalas’ digestive ability for eucalyptus, their staple diet.
