Fun Facts About Koalas

The koala is one of Australia's most iconic marsupials. Learn how these animals survive on a highly specialized diet of eucalyptus leaves, which are toxic to most other creatures. This low-energy food source means koalas must conserve energy by sleeping up to 20 hours a day. Learn about their unique life cycle, starting as a tiny, jellybean-sized "joey" that completes its development in its mother's pouch, and the surprising reason the name "koala" is thought to mean "no drink." Despite their cuddly appearance, male koalas can produce a deep, powerful bellow thanks to a second set of vocal cords—a feature unique among land mammals. Find out why calling them "koala bears" is incorrect and who their closest living relative actually is. Uncover the incredible adaptations for their tree-dwelling lifestyle, including two opposable thumbs on each front paw for a vice-like grip.
