Koalas for Kids | Learn all about these sleepy marsupials

Still need costume ideas for Halloween? How about a koala! Koalas are cute and cuddly little animals. They have soft, fluffy fur in colors that range from gray to brown, helping them blend in with the trees where they live. They have big round ears and a large, black nose to sniff out their favorite food: eucalyptus leaves. Their sharp claws and padded feet make them excellent climbers, too, allowing them to grip tree branches securely. Koalas are herbivores, which means they only eat plants. And as you remember, their favorite food is eucalyptus leaves. Eucalyptus leaves are tough and not very nutritious, but koalas have particular adaptations to help them digest this food. They spend most of their time eating eucalyptus leaves and resting in trees. Naturally, they are excellent climbers. They have two thumbs on each front paw to help them grip branches and climb trees more efficiently. Believe it or not, koalas have fingerprints that are distinct to each individual. These fingerprints are not only found on their paws but also on their nose! This makes each koala's nose print unique, like our human fingerprints. Scientists can use the nose prints to identify and track individual koalas in the wild, helping with conservation efforts and population studies.
