The Australian koala is a marsupial that lives in the coastal forests of eastern and southern Australia. Here's a summary of its life and livelihood:

### 🏡 Habitat and Living
- The koala lives in forests containing eucalyptus trees, where it spends most of its time in the trees.
- It is characterized by its skillful climbing ability thanks to its strong claws and long limbs.
- It prefers to live alone and moves within a specific area containing several of its favorite trees.

### 🍃 Diet
- The koala feeds primarily on eucalyptus leaves, and can consume up to 1.3 kg per day.
- Its digestive system contains special bacteria that help it digest the toxic substances found in eucalyptus leaves.
- Its diet is poor in nutrients, so it spends most of its time sleeping to conserve energy.

### 🍼 Reproduction
- Koalas are prolific animals, and females give birth to one pup at a time.
- The pup is about the size of a bean and is blind and hairless at birth.
- The pup remains inside the mother's pouch for 6-7 months, feeding on milk and then a special substance called "pap," which later helps it digest eucalyptus leaves.

### 📏 Size and Weight
- Koalas are 60 to 85 cm (24 to 33 inches) tall.
- They weigh up to 14 kg (31 lbs) in southern regions, while they are smaller in northern regions.

### ⏳ Lifespan
- Koalas live up to 15 years in the wild and may live
longer in captivity.

Koalas are endangered due to habitat loss and the spread of diseases such as chlamydia, which affect their fertility.
