Though often called the koala “bear,” this cuddly animal is not a bear at all; it is a marsupial, or pouched mammal. If you'd like to learn more, you can read on here: https://on.natgeo.com/2LxmV6L
Koalas are the most Australian animals! The Australian lifestyle is literally based on them! 90% sleeping & 10% eating! 😂

I love koalas. So sad to hear about the wildfire

Can they be domesticated? I'd love to have one, or two, as pets.

10% eating, 90% sleeping – now, that’s the life 🙂
Bushfires actually help the natural habitat for Koalas as it rejuvenates the flora.

Here's a fun, very little known fact about Marsupials. While most orders and Species of Marsupials are found in Australia, not all of them are, and in fact, Marsupials did not evolve in Australia. America is the birthplace of Marsupials, and Opossums are the only Marsupials that never left America. Possums and Opossums are also not the same. Possums are found in Australia, and look very different to Opossums. Not to mention, Opossums and Possums are different scientifically too.

How koala 🐨 can sleep 22 hour per day ,when one day has only 12 hour????😂😂😂😁😁😁😁😁😁
Also if you count from midnight 12 am by the 12 pm in light day ,then all day by 12 midnight has 24 hour.
How koala can sleep 22 hour per day and she is awake only 2 hour? This is wrong how she calculated.
10% eating. 90% sleeping. Sounds like they're living the dream life.
koalas arent cool
Well Australians must do something to protect, grow and maintain their natural habitat. Plant more trees. More trees. During rainy season people could have save a lot of water and you can use those water during summer.
I love koala 🐨 so much!! i almost died when i meet real koala in AU !! super cute more than my espect!! It makes me so sad knowing that these poor babies are burning alive in australia 😢! I hope they wont get extinct after this tragedy!
Koalas are the only animals to have 2 thumbs
Theres no ounce of thought in that koala bear
The most beautiful creature in the whole world… I LOVE IT SO SO SO MUCH😍🥰💝
🐨s are super cute.
Why would anyone try to film the poor thing on instead of just rushing to rescue it. People are insane with trying to record everything
I think I am a koala in sleeping
