Koala is an aboriginal word which means `drinks no water'. The koala lives in trees in forests. It doesn't eat any meat and it doesn't drink any water. The koala is active at night and during the day it sleeps in the fork of a tree. The koala has long arms and sharp curved claws for climbing trees and for grasping branches. It has a large hairless nose and it hasn't got a tail. People used to hunt the koala for its grey fur but now it is a protected animal.
The koala usually has only one baby a year. At birth the baby is very small. At first it cannot see and it hasn't got any fur. The female koala has a pouch on her stomach. Inside this pouch the mother produces milk for her baby. The baby stays in its mother's pouch until it is about six months old. Then it clings to its mother's back for another six months. After this the young koala starts to live a solitary (单独的) life.
