Koalas are fuzzy animals that live in Australia. They have soft fur, round ears, and a small black nose. People sometimes call them “koala bears,” but they are not bears. They belong to a group of animals called marsupials, which means they carry their babies in a pouch.

Koalas’ Homes 🏡

Koalas live in eucalyptus forests in Australia. These trees are really important because:

Koalas are great at climbing. Their sharp claws help them grab onto branches and stay safe up in the trees.

What Do Koalas Eat? 🥗

Koalas are very picky when it comes to food. Here’s what they like:

  • Koalas only eat these leaves.
  • The leaves have a lot of water, so koalas don’t need to drink very much.
  • Because the leaves are hard to digest, koalas spend hours eating slowly.

  • They live in their mom’s pouch for six months. After that, they ride on their mom’s back.

Facts About Koalas 🌿

Here are some fun facts about these sleepy, furry animals:

  • Koalas love staying in eucalyptus trees, which is where they find their food and shelter. They are excellent climbers with sharp claws that help them grip onto branches.
  • Koalas only eat eucalyptus leaves, and they can munch on up to 2.5 pounds of leaves each day.
  • Koalas sleep up to 18 hours a day. This is because eucalyptus leaves don’t give them much energy, so they have to rest to conserve it.
  • A baby koala is called a joey, and it’s only the size of a jellybean when born. The mother carries the joey in her pouch for around six months until it’s strong enough to come out.
