The
KOALA BEAR is unique to Australia. It is not a member of the bear
family, however it is a marsupial (carries its young in its pouch).
Koalas have two thumbs on each of their paws which helps them to hold on
tight to even the most slippery branches, while its dense fur shields it
from the rain. Koalas generally sleep during the day and become more
active at night, feeding on gum leaves.
