The picture
above shows you baby kola with their parents on eucalyptus trees
in Brisbane, Australia. Koalas are marsupials and not bears as
often called “koala bears”. The baby of marsupial species is
born immature and they develop further in a pouch. The baby
koala will stay in the pouch for around six to seven months and
will be drinking only milk. Koalas can sleep up to twenty hours
in day. The home of a koala is often different group of trees
but they will often come back the same tree. The communication
between koalas is made with range of noises. A young female
koala often gives birth once a year and gets one joey (baby
koala) and older female may sometimes give birth sometimes only
each two to three years. The koalas eat only some species of the
eucalyptus leaves and there are six hundred species of these
trees. There is in Brisbane a foundation that has been created
to help koalas, people can also make donation to the foundation.
The foundation was established in 1986 with its headquarters in
Brisbane. |
