A lot of people keep pets at home. They can be very different — from cats and dogs to some really exotic animals like snakes, monkeys, and even kangaroos and koalas. Koalas are very cute animals, but is it a good idea to keep them as pets? Scientists, vets, and other specialists think that it is not. Just read this information and think why a koala feels very unhappy if we take it from its natural home.
The koala is not a large animal. It has a big head, large round ears, big dark eyes and a black nose. 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 look like teddy bears, but they are not bears, or even relatives of the bears.
Koalas are very slow animals. They need as many as 15 hours a day to sleep and rest. 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 own trees which other koalas do not visit.
Koalas live in the forest with other koalas, but they do not spend much time together. Scientists say that koalas communicate with each other very little. The animals drink very little water. In fact, in native Australian languages the word ‘koala’ means ‘no water’. Koalas get all the water they need from the eucalyptus leaves.
Koalas are not endangered animals anymore. But we should be very careful with the eucalyptus forests and not cut down the trees if we want to continue to have the small teddy bear-like animals on our planet.
