Hey guys! This is an information report on koalas that I have been working on in literacy for the week. Hope you enjoy!
Koala’s
Koalas are a kind of mammal called Marsupials with front pockets to carry babies. They are quite slow but can still be pretty cool.
Koalas are found in Eastern Australia, Victoria and a small part of South Australia and are most common in the Eucalyptus forest. They spend most of their time huddled to the branches, sleeping, otherwise, they are eating.
Koalas rely on their eucalyptus tree leaves to fuel them with food, and sometimes they vary on different tree leaves such as lophostemon, melaleuca and corymbia.
Koalas are Marsupials, a group of mammals that reproduce highly underdeveloped babies sexually. The Koala baby, the joey, sleep in the mother’s pouch at the front and feeds off the mother’s milk that she has produced.
The Koala has an amazing grip which is great for clutching to the branches of trees to sleep and they have extremely sharp claws to grab leaves to eat. Koalas have an amazing sleep time, for they can sleep up to 16 hours a day! The rest of the time of their day is usually spent eating.
