SCIENCE INFO

It is estimated that 480 million
animals died due to a bush fire in
Australia since the end of August
2019. At least 8000 koalas perished
in the fire. About 30 percent of the
koalas’ habitats are also destroyed. tiger

among living things are also affected. This causes
a major change to food chains and food webs.
