Description

Hello dear members! This is a last upload of my Australian animals series...Koala bear. ummm nothing to do with bears...sorry. Living most of its life on a tree tops chewing on eucalyptus leaves. These leaves contains a kind of drug what make this lovely curvy animal kind a toxicated (not poisoned).In this "behind a curtain" stage they not a very fast animal. Easy to catch them but more difficult to get hold on to them. In feel of danger in human hand they become nerveous and they do bite, while they making a grouling noise. seeyus and lots of thanks for a lovely, sometimes funny comments through this series, made me feel it wasn't waist to share them!

Oh what a cute capture of this little koala. Had one once climb our electricity pole. Was ages before it came down so we could rescue it and move it to higher ground. Talk about big big claws. Lovely image matie:)

Excellent and beautiful photograph. Koalas are wonderful creatures and fortunately they're not addicted to any drug in the leaves (there are just various poisons which they can digest easily). They're tired and sleep alot because the leaves are their only diet which doesn't provide enough energy for them to be as active as other creatures. :)
