Koalas!
Koalas are cute, cuddly and NOT BEARS! Join Paul and Donna as they unpack the fascinating lives of these adorable little varmints from Down Under!
But first the news!
What would you do if you found a koala in your car? Do what Tim Whitrow did! Be nice! And hopefully they won’t damage your dashboard quite as badly.
Koalas eat poisonous leaves. Poisonous. How in the world do they do it? Nat Geo knows. Article courtesy of nationalgeographic.com
I’m eating what??
Koala fur! It’s thick and woolly and perfect for an animal that needs every calorie that it can get it’s hands on. Also BUTT PADS! Article courtesy of koalainfo.com
It’s essentially a built in memory foam something or another with a BUTT PAD!
How smart are koalas? According to three smart people they aren’t the sharpest knife in the shed. What do you think? Courtesy of Quora.com
There isn’t a lot going on up there but they’re smart enough to be koalas. Bless their little hearts.
Blinky Bill is HUGE in Australia! We had no idea. Thanks to our Varminion Anna for requesting this pop culture subject and YouTube user FlyingBarkChannel!
There are no koala superheroes or video games so the OTHER kid’s show we talked about is the Koala Brothers! Courtesy of YouTube user Koala Brothers TV
The future of koalas in the wild is very dire. More healthy little koalas like this one are needed. Article courtesy of theconservation.com
Koalas have human-like fingerprints! Who knew? Not us! We don’t have the koalafications. (You knew I was going to throw that joke in somewhere.) Article courtesy of livescience.com
Which is which?
Now you know a little more about koalas than you did this morning! What do you think of them? We want to hear from you! Send us your suggestions for animals you’d like to hear us talk about, or just drop us a line about anything at [email protected]! We might even read your email on the show.
