other uniquely Australian animals koalas are being squcezed into smaller regions But at present it is a deadly disease a somewhat silent killer that causes a further decline in the koala population that is worrying many scientists about the fate of the koala The killer is Chlamydia which has caused symptoms in up to 50 percent of the wild koalas with probably even more infected 感染 but not showing symptoms It has been particularly sevcre in Queensland where nearly all koalas are infected The disease causes many symptoms including eye infections which can lead to blindness making it difficult for them to find their primay food Treating Chlamydia in wild koalas is a challenge There is no treatment available for it Only a small percentage of the animals can be treated successfully and returned to the wild Besides there is no national plan in Australia to save the koala it is up to each region to make management plans for its koala population The good news is that researchers are working to test a vaccine 疫苗 that would help prevent further spread If all goes well plans can be carried out to distribute the vaccil1e more widely But it s impossible to vaccinate all wild koalas Another possibility would be to make vaccine distribution a routi11e part of treatment for the thousands of koalas brought into care centers every year after they are injured by cars or dogs While it is a combination of problems that are affecting the wild koala 用心 爱心 专心9 population many expelts believe this vaccine would be an important step in helping koalas survive longer It may buy

outside universe al1d conduct many experiments However nothing like that exists for our oceans and thanks to the high water pressure ocean researchers are able to explore what lies undersea for very short periods of time They are therefore never able to fully explore the deep inside areas of our oceans However if French architect Jacques Rougerie has his way that will change soon Jacqucs has designed a ship that will allow researchers to spend a long period of time observing the sea life and conducting experiments The huge l67ft ship named Sea Orbiter consists of two areas one above the watei wherc the scientists and crew will live and a lower pressurized deck 甲板 where scientists will bc able to spend as much time as they wish Since it is powered by sea currents and wind he expects

tools and communication equipment the ship will also have a gym a television and a DVD player And these guys will not be eating freeze dried food like astronauts Instead Jacques an accomplished chef
