Threat to the existence koala population to encourage Australia to do some research efforts to prevent the recording of all communications with the animals through the phone. Researchers will install a number of mobile phone in the trees where koala habitat.

Researchers use the tools that connect with satellites to monitor the behavior of koalas and is used for voice phone that will light every 30 minutes, and able to record all communication koalas for two minutes.

Mobile-phone installed in the trees that use batteries and said the sun and each recording can connect and download directly on the computer of the University of Queensland in Brisbane.

“Koalas are able to communicate from a short-range voice, clear voice to long for one minute, the average communication takes place in the middle of the night, so we need tools to monitor their communications,” said researcher Bill Ellis.

Koala population is increasingly threatened by urban development that is increasingly rapidly.
