Australia Adventure #2


The Koala Zoo
A couple of days later spent the day in Australia going to art museums and seeing the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary.  This is where they take in injured or koalas in need of help.  While there we were able to feed kangaroos, hold Koalas, and baby chicks.  It was amazing.  What we learned about Koalas is that there number one predator is the house dog, who attacks when they are in people’s back yard, they only eat Eucaplyse leaves which is made up of about 95% water and 5% protein, which is why they sleeps so much because they basically get no energy from their food.
