Koala^-^

Hello~~~~~~
😀

 Today I want to introduce our unique animals in Australia.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Koala~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Koala is a very lazy little animal. They basically eat and sleep every day. A koala is an animal that weighs about 60 cm to 85 cm and weighs about 14 kg. Koalas are mammals, and they have a bag of newborn development. When a baby koala is born, he will immediately climb up to the koala's mother's pouch. After six months of growth and development, the little koala will grow up on the back of the koala mother. 


An adult koala eats between 200 to 500 grams of leaves each day. Koalas eat mainly eucalyptus leaves (gum leaves). Occasionally they will eat the leaves from some other native Australian trees, and they also use certain trees just for resting in.









Usually, Koala needs to sleep between 18 to 22 hours for per day. They sleep a lot to conserve energy as their diet requires a lot of energy to digest.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~koala ^-^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sadly, around 80% of koala habitat has been lost to human homes, drought and forest fires.
Because their habitat is under threat.  


I hope that everyone can do things from the side to protect the natural environment of our lives, and also help our animal friends to maintain a home that allows them to survive.

But why? Now I know what you're thinking. Out of all the beautiful, majestic and stunning animals of this world.  Why a Blobfish?  The Blobfish has been a severely under appreciated animal. This is probably because of how hideous this poor little creature is.  "But Animals5 that image above is so adorable and cute, how could you possibly call it ugly?" M O V I N G   O N

Last animals' blog

LAST BLOG WITH YOU ALL! 🙀 We hope you have all enjoyed our animal posts and learnt some things along the way! 😄 Our whole group has evenly contributed to writing the blog posts. Hanying, Qiannuo, Anton and Dianne all went to the zoo in order to grab some great animal footage video for our 'Animal' theme content. Hugo was unable to attend our zoo trip, however we had some moral support from him. We organised a meeting where we gathered to contribute our ideas, edit and sort the videos into the wanted order etc. We made a fun (and hilarious) video on Youtube for you to watch! Check it out here below before we part our ways :) FAREWELL FELLOW ANIMAL FRIENDS! 44622708 Dianne Vuong 45381399 Anton Kwong 44872364 Hanying Zhang 44186819 Qiannuo Zhang 44915853 Li Cheng Chuang

Sloth

About Sloths Sloths are small sized mammals, with round heads, and short snouts, small eyes and long legs. Sloths have coarse fur that is light brown in color, but often appears green due to the blue-green algae that grow there. Instead of toes, their front and hind feet have three curved claws that allow them to easily hook onto tree branches and hang upside-down.  Fun facts - Sloths can rotate their heads nearly 90 degrees,  - Their mouths are shaped so they look like they are always smiling.  - Males are distinguishable from females because they usually have a bright yellow or orange patch of fur located between their shoulders. Slow and Steady The sloth is renowned to be the slowest-moving animal on earth! They can swim but are virtually unable to walk. This makes them an easy target for predators who hunt sloths for meat. Ritual defecation is the sloth equivalent of speed dating, just without the speed. This unfortunately puts them at ri...
