Koalas

The koala is 61 to 85 cm tall and weighs between 4 and 14 kg.

Male koalas weighs mostly more as female koalas. The koala has brownish-silver-gray, woolly fur .He have two gripping hands with pointed, sharp claws, each with two thumbs and three opposite fingers, which are well suited for climbing and grasping twigs. The claws grow so that they can remove ticks Characteristic features are a protruding, dark nose and large ears, which shows that smelling and hearing play an important role in their lives. The koala has a large head in relation to its body, whose brain mass is relatively low.

In fact, koalas are just as small as a peanut and shell when they are born. To do this, they are naked, blind and cannot hear yet. In short: baby koalas would not be able to survive on their own. How do they do it anyway? They crawl into their mother’s pouch!
