Melbourne - Koala Sitting In The Old Gum Tree Poster

Australia has such a unique species of animals and the koala is one of the best examples. The koala is found in coastal areas of the mainland's eastern and southern regions, inhabiting Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia. It is easily recognisable by its stout, tailless body; round, fluffy ears; and large, spoon-shaped nose. Koalas typically inhabit open eucalypt woodlands, and the leaves of these trees make up most of their diet. Because this eucalypt diet has limited nutritional and caloric content, koalas are largely sedentary and sleep for up to 20 hours a day. Why not start your collection of Australian Fauna with this inexpensive Australian poster- great for home or office or school classroom.
