Did you know ?
Because their diet is so low in nutrition, koalas spend up to 20 hours per day sleeping and the rest eating.
(They eat only a few types of eucalyptus leaves from which they get all nutrients and water requirements, but they must eat over a kilogram per day, because eucalyptus leaves only contain 8% fat, 5% carbohydrates and 4% protein. Eucalyptus leaves are toxic but the koala has a stomach which removes the toxins the leaves)
YAAAAAAAAAAAWN..............
ZZZZZZZZZZ.................
On second thought, I don't really want to sleep as much as a koala because I wouldn't have time for all my friends !
