'When someone first told conservationist Jess Abrahams they were worried about
the koala becoming an endangered species twenty years ago, he admits he found
the idea absurd.

"I literally laughed at them. I said, 'What are you talking about? Koalas are
everywhere'," he said.

"As a kid they were there on my grandfather's farm, they were all along the
Yarra and throughout Eastern Australia.

"And wow, within 10 years, koalas were vulnerable and last year they were
endangered."'
