To Heights


This photo shows a forest of entirely skinny trees. These types of forests occur after a period of deforestation for wood fuel. New trees are planted in large quantities and they all grow at a similar speed. The reason then that all of these trees are so skinny is because they're all very young.

This cute image shows an Australian Koala and her joey, taken in 2005 in Port Douglas, Australia. Koalas are marsupials found in coastal regions of Oceania. Koalas, like Kangaroos, develop their joey in a pouch until 6 months old, at which time they venture out into the world, but stay close to their mother, usually riding on her back.
