Thekoalais anarborealherbivorousmarsupialnative toAustralia.

It is the onlyextantrepresentative of the familyPhascolarctidaeand its closest living relatives are thewombats.

The koala is found in coastal areas of the mainland's eastern and southern regions, inhabitingQueensland, New South Wales, Victoria, andSouth Australia.

It is easily recognisable by its stout, tailless body and large head with round, fluffy ears and large, spoon - shaped nose.

The koala has a body length of 60–85cm (24–33in) and weighs 4–15kg (9–33lb).

Pelagecolour ranges from silver grey to chocolate brown.

Koalas from the northern populations are typically smaller and lighter in colour than their counterparts further south.

These populations possibly are separatesubspecies, but this is disputed.

Koalas typically inhabit openeucalyptwoodlands, and the leaves of these trees make up most of their diet.

Because this eucalypt diet has limited nutritional and caloric content, koalas are largelysedentaryand sleep up to 20 hours a day.

They are asocial animals, andbondingexists only between mothers and dependent offspring.

Adult malescommunicatewith loud bellows that intimidate rivals and attract mates.

Males mark their presence with secretions fromscent glandslocated on their chests.

Being marsupials, koalas give birth to underdeveloped young that crawl into their mothers'pouches, where they stay for the first six to seven months of their lives.

These young koalas, known asjoeys, are fullyweanedaround a year old.

Koalas have few natural predators and parasites, but are threatened by variouspathogens, such asChlamydiaceaebacteria and thekoala retrovirus, as well as bybushfiresand droughts.

Koalas were hunted byindigenous Australiansand depicted inmythsandcave artfor millennia.

The first recorded encounter between a European and a koala was in 1798, and an image of the animal was published in 1810 by naturalistGeorge Perry.

BotanistRobert Brownwrote the first detailed scientificdescriptionof the koala in 1814, although his work remained unpublished for 180 years.

Popular artistJohn Gouldillustrated and described the koala, introducing the species to the general British public.

Further details about the animal's biology were revealed in the 19th century by several English scientists.

Because of its distinctive appearance, the koala is recognised worldwide as asymbol of Australia.

Koalas are listed as ofVulnerableby theInternational Union for Conservation of Nature.

[1]The Australian government similarly lists specific populations in Queensland and New South Wales as Vulnerable.

[4]The animal was hunted heavily in the early 20th century for its fur, and large - scalecullingsin Queensland resulted in a public outcry that initiated a movement to protect the species.

Sanctuarieswere established, andtranslocationefforts moved to new regions koalas whose habitat had become fragmented or reduced.

The biggest threat to their existence ishabitat destructioncaused by agriculture andurbanisation.

There are many animals in Australia that you cannot see anywhere else.

Did you know that?

Of course, you did!

I personally divide Australian animals into three categories : the good, the bad, the ugly.

I think, it's reasonable.

Talking of the good animals, we should mention kangaroos in the first place.

There are many different types of kangaroo.

The biggest are the great grey kangaroos.

They are 213 centimetres tall and can run at 56 kilometres per hour.

Some run from you then stop and stare.

Though we have put kangaroos in the «Good» category, farmers might disagree.

Wombats and koalas have many similarities and are probably related.

Both have pockets inside their mouths to store food and neither has a tail.

The number of koalas is getting smaller.

This is partly because of fumes from bush fires.

Rescue teams help the koalas by catching them, putting them on respirators, then returning them to their original location when they are better.

Australia also has a lot of native marsupial mice that live in the desert.

Many of these only come out at night.

You know, there are many animals that are «unpopular» in Australia including spiders which are dangerous.

You can find these in Sydney.

If they are hungry, they will attack anything that moves.

They have sharp teeth and poison.

Luckily, there is an antidote if you can get to hospital quickly.

There have been 12 deaths since 1927.

Another animal with sharp teeth and a fatal bite is the shark.

However, there are normally a lot of beach patrols and protective nets to stop these from eating you for breakfast.

Other animals that are a problem for beach lovers are jellyfish.

They look like bubbles of blue bubble gum and they have a painful sting therefore people do not swim when there are many in the water.

Other «unpopular» animals include dingoes.

These are a cross between wolves and dogs.

They are unpopular because they eat farmers' animals.

Now what about the ugly animals?

A word that people often use to describe a cane toad is ugly!

Other words include fat, noisy and disgusting.

They are also as big as footballs!

The Queensland Government brought cane toads to Australia to eat cane beetles.

Unfortunately cane toads can't fly but cane beetles can.

Now the toads are more of a problem than the beetles.

Hundreds of thousands are born every year.

The toads eat everything including rare Australian animals.

The toads are also poisonous to eat.

Animals that eat them die.

Though they are unpopular animals, some people like them and keep them as pets or write songs about them.

There are a number of types of crocodiles found in northern Australia, ranging from the potentially dangerous saltwater crocodiles to smaller, more shy, harmless varieties.

They have got snakes too although fears of the poisonous types are largely exaggerated.

They are generally shy creatures, only too ready to avoid trouble.

The taipan and the tiger are worth keeping away from.

That is only a small selection of the creatures of the country.

Others include penguins, turtles, seals and possums.

In the dry areas, you can see an amazing variety of lizards ; some grow to a very hefty size.
