The Koala Bear

Koala Bears are definitely the cutest type of bear out there! I used to always want one of these creatures when i was younger but I had to settle with a dog. Koala bears are not ferocious like other bears, they aren't even in the bear specie!! These animals live in the woodlands of Australia. The translation of their name, Koala, interestingly is doesnt drink because they seem to live off nearly no water!

These furry ear'd creatures walk on four legs on the ground and are great climbers, that is why they love the woodlands so much. They feed off of tree leaves and fruits which makes it very easy to maintain their diets in captivity considering they are on the threatened species list because their are so few of them in the wild.




Thanks to my sources for the great pictures of these cute Koalas!
