The koala is not a large animal. It has a big head, large round ears, big dark eyes, a black nose, and sharp claws. The koala has no tail. Koala’s coat is grey or brown. The fur is very thick which protects them from hot and cold weather, rain and wind.
Koalas are very slow animals. These unusual animals live only in Australia and on some of the nearby islands. Koalas live on the eucalyptus trees. They eat the eucalyptus leaves and practically never eat anything else. In fact, they eat only fresh, new leaves and that is why one animal needs several trees to keep it healthy and alive. Each koala normally has its trees which other koalas do not visit.
The animals drink very little water. In fact, in native Australian languages, the word "koala" means "no water".
