Australian koala

The koala is famed for its close bond with eucalyptus trees, which provide both nourishment and shelter. This endearing marsupial spends most of its life nestled among the eucalyptus leaves, finding comfort and safety in their canopy. The trees’ distinctive aroma creates a calming environment, perfectly suited to the koala’s peaceful nature. As a result, the koala has become a cherished symbol of Australia’s rich and unique biodiversity.
