Regarding the chlamydia epidemic in koalas, it appears that although they sleep 20 hours a day, they are **very ** busy in the remaining four!

We went to visit a Koala Sanctuary in Brisbane during our trip to Australia. Turns out koalas face an epidemic of chlamydia, which made me sad. In addition to that, we later visited another park with Tasmanian Devils, where we found out they have a problem with facial cancer, which Google now tells me is called Devil facial tumour disease (DFTD).

I went to Australia to be afraid of giant spiders and poisonos snakes. Instead, apparently I should have feared the existential dread itself all along.
