Though often called the koala “bear,” this cuddly animal is not a bear at all; it is a marsupial, or pouched mammal. If you'd like to learn more, you can read on here: on.natgeo.com/2LxmV6L

90% of their time a day is sleeping?
I think im half-koala.
Yeah me to
@@hikimoritwo8910 So neither of you have jobs?
Yes my koalafications have been confirmed as well!
so you spend 45 % of your time sleeping?
Yeah i sleep 12-15h a day im 🐼
It makes me so sad knowing that these poor babies are burning alive in australia 😢! I hope they wont get extinct after this tragedy!
TheFd90 30% of total koalas are burnt alive in forest fire within week
Makes me sad 😪
Soooo Sad😢😢😢
Me too watching this because of Australian fires. Really hoping that everything will be fine with this marvelous species. Altough predictions are bad...
it breaks my heart.
It's just sad to know these harmless marsupials are slowly decreasing in numbers. I mean, like, look at it. Those cute furry faces.
humans
They aint harmless they are lethal predators
I love in Australia and there are still lots! Australia would never let them go extinct
@@watto7756
A friend had told me that ..that's a Good thing
They even have to be culled back in some areas cause of the risk of them eating theirselves to starvation
Its marvelous how many of us are here because of australian fires. It shows that we care about this species. Really hoping koalas will be able to survive this huge threat.
how does watching a youtube video show you care about koalas?
I came here to say baby koalas
I agree with Mr Bio. It shows a sympathy for the koala and their destiny.
isak terrill Because you clearly searched the video (you found this one) and that shows that you care. Or this video ended up being recommended. But if that happened, then you clicked it and again, it shows that you care.
Yay no burning
Well, they have all the koala-fications for cutenesses.
*shakes head 😂😂😂😂
Ha ha ha ha ha. Very funny. Did very much laugh.
Come on, Australia! You can do better. Protect these precious animals!
lol they got one of the worst internet speed that doesn't even reach 1mb per second. They have other problems to solves too
Joel Santiago - it’s not just Australia’s fault. It’s everyone who eats animals fault. Scientific facts.
I’m from Australia there are still heaps! They just don’t live in suburbs much, plenty where I live and in the wild
our politicians live in the pockets of big extractive industries like mining and fossil fuel moguls 😔 that's why we can't save them
Gula roos do you know what a joke is?
I'm praying for Australia everyday, not only for the people but, for these beautiful animals and their habitat too! 🙏🏻
God bless all those who are helping Australia right now.
If there was god, why did they go though this :)
@@youtulsa Ask God that question. I am not God! 👍🏻
You are so positive person I am praying too.
@@the_unconventional_Indian77 Thank you!
Praying won’t do anything but ok
90% sleeping?thats a koality sleep
I can Bearly stand that joke
YES
Caleb Mathes LOVE IT
Now they can’t sleep that much because of the fires. If the fire doesn’t stop they‘ll be nearly extinct😭
Reported
🐨s are super cute.
It kills me that these fires are killing these slow, sleepy, sweethearts so easily. They have zero chance other than the kindness of some big hearted humans rescuing them down there. Thank you to all helping these gentle babes
unlike any animal, koalas cannot comprehend that fire is dangerous. They only know it's painful when they are burned by it.
Sloth knows fire is dangerous, so they back off or run. Sloth is just lazy, not stupid.
Sad they are classed as an endangered animal now :(
ARMY!
uwu tiny namjoons
Are you serious??? Expensive girl is talking about a serious issue and you two reply with THINGS THAT GOT *NOTHING* TO DO WITH KOALAS. Get a life you two.
Really? I always wanted to see a koala, but I guess I can’t anymore if Koala species are decreasing fast. :
Ah yes the koala. It’s biggest predator is stupidity.
Just donated to a koala hospital that’s building a water feeders to save these fuzzy Aussies from dying of thirst in the wildfires.
Hello! Can you please tell me the hospital you donated for,because i also want to donate for the koalas. Thank you!
Please tell us where to donate
@@gisellequintero1285 hope this helps
Nick Bode Thank you for your kindness ♥️🙏🏻
Could you please help me out where to donate
Koalas are such lovely animals. They need all the help they can get these days.
2:21 that adorable yawn! 😭
Who’s here to learn about koalas more after Australia’s bush fires? Hehe meeeeee, no joke I cried seeing the burned koalas.
I also cried....
Half a billion animals perished :(
I'm here too
I too cried a lot after seeing this ..
I too cried
They don't eat other animals and humans, save them. 🙏🏾😭
What does them eating other animals have to do ith anything
These are the definition of a peaceful creature.
I've heard they can attack people with their claws but I'm assuming it's self-defense.
Never
"Allows them to consume a substance the mother secretes to aid in digestion"
This is the sort of thing Nat Geo had to do to give a whole 4 minutes of koala facts without making them look bad.
Yeah, We all know what those baby koalas are consuming... different from milk
Disney or Pixar needs to make a hit animated movie with a koala as the lead protagonist, it would cause a koala craze and fundings for the saving of the species would blow up 🥺
The Nephew Music I agree!
Ever heard of Blinky Bill
I think that be a little much to ask tbh, but maybe one of their short films at the beginning of the movie
Sing (Movie)
There’s a comic book series being made right now with a koala protagonist
I remember as a kid, I'd see koalas everywhere and often. However, nowadays I can't remember the last time I saw one.
Lachlan Smith Probably because of Coyote Peterson
@@Valyirxz who's Coyote Peterson?
Koala bears are one of the cutest animals out there
Also the dumbest
@Brendan Fogel When they give their cubs a piggyback ride, is even cuter. It's their little mini-me on their backs. 🙉🤗
@@ravenwda007 You don't seem to differ from a koala sir.
@@tzortzkawaz6892 so true!
ravenwda007 think you’re talking about yourself
Please dont hurt them . save them .. I love koalas so much
Why? All species go extinct eventually
@@ravenwda007 humans will soon too :)
YoungSpunkY do you are happy about that you sjw Fucktard?
Retarted Bieber No.he got a point.
ravenwda007 tbh with our knowledge and resources we can prevent pretty much all species going extinct...
Eucalyptus:- I am about to end this animal's entire career ! ( Poisonous)
Koala:- Am I a joke to you ?
koalas: we are furballs and sleep 90% of the day.
sloth: have a sleeping contest then
koala: ok
Koala: I sleep 90% of the day
Sloth: Hold m...zzzzzz
10% of the day eating and 90% of the day sleeping. I'm a Koala.
Lovely mini kangaroos
Not just a Koala. But an Australian! 😅
I’m praying for them and all of the animals down there in Australia
Here after Lewis’ death, RIP
😢😭
Who was Lewis?
@@fidluk2574 It's so sad, the poor thing burned and was crying :(
He is dead?😭
My partner also cried his eyes out when he heard that Lewis died. 😭 I feel so sad, wish I was there to rescue them and volunteer in koala hospital...
Nature always bounces back. 10 years they will be back in numbers!
The only part of australia they inhabit is the part that is currently burning, how utterly depressing 😔
So pathetic 😥😥
You are obviously joking ... over the decades I've seen them throughout the country from east to west and top to bottom .... during the 60's dead ones were seen on the roads everywhere ... these days it's not so common to see a dead one .... during the past 50 years about 90% have disappeared mainly due to blindness and diseases
@honkster 7 I'm talking late fifties to early sixties I saw a few in the south west .... saw one near Busselton in 1971 .... haven't spent much time in WA during the past forty years so can't comment on the recent past.
"koala sleep up to 22 hours per day"
My animal spirit
My son has so many koala like things. He was born with 2 fingers stuck together, looks like one, has a round back and likes to hug us.
They can do damage with those claws if you try to make them do something they don't want to do like getting off a road, A friend of mine tried to get one sitting in the middle of the road to move and got some nice stitches in return
Yeh I paid to hold one when I was in Hamilton Island not long ago, and I freaked out when I saw it’s claws. All the tourists were eyeing me like I was crazy, but iv’e heard they can be vicious and I’m a chicken.
Nobody:
Humans: These animals are so cute; I must wear it!
Shan Hussain nobody wears koala fur in Australia
Koalas are amongst the most adorable animals I have ever seen in my life. It is so sad the population is decreasing by the days, not to mention the bushfires in the beginning of the year that killed so many off.
Pandas are #1 🐼
Hello Australia from Russia! 🙋 I like your country, and these beautiful koalas that live with you.🙌
Anton Kolbasin Hi I cannot find my shovel can you help me please
Yes, koalas are great. Worth protecting just like Ukraine. Russian soldiers have behaved badly in Ukraine. What do you have to say about Putin? Do Russians believe his lies? Innocent people in Ukraine trying live their lives have been forced from their homes. Many towns and cities are in ruins. Shame on the Russian Government.
Their breath is fresh and colon clean. Pretty awesome 💗🤎
It's really sad to hear these habitats are decreasing. These are very beautiful and adorable.
actually, if not for australian conservation program, they will die off by themselves.
They are on the way to extinct themselves through very bad choices of gene pool.
So releaxd and so cute
Who is watching after knowing bushfire incidence
Me
Me too
Not me,
I was lucky enough to see a bunch of them awake at Canberra Zoo
They're adorable creatures
Fight for your justice koalas, you can survive
Lmao
Hello I am a Koala
Чудные, смотрю и не перестаю удивляться, милые
koalas are my fav animal. they’re super adorable.
please save them from bushfires, we need them in the world, they are adorable, how sad what`s happening in Australia,
Howw cute koalas are .... 🥰🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘😘😘
I need to live in asustralia I love koalas
You’d better get here quick before the Premier finishes destroying their habitat.
3:17 the cutest part
Wow it quiet interesting
My spirit animal 😜🐨❤️❤️
0:50 this means the koalas eat their mother’s back door fudge to be able to digest eucalyptus
Rip fam, you guys will always be remembered
Entrañables criaturas 🐨🐨💞
0:13 I’ve never seen a more suspect looking koala in my life
How beautiful they are... Innocent ones
Koalas are so cute!
Australia is blessed with amazing wildlife.... Protect it!
The Unboxer most of our wildlife will kill you these little cuties are no exception
Koalas são bonitinhos, parece bichinhos de pelúcias. Ele tem o metabolismo muito lento.
One of the lovely cute animal around the world.
Koalas are the cutest thing
Shocked she didn't say how most of them have chlamydia
Well, Kuala Lumpur should do something about that. :D
Malaysia
WHAT? Koala bears are natives to Australia, not Malaysia. smh
How does a city do anything about animals? Plus , the koalas come from Australia, not Malaysia
Koala Lompur?
@@chanbricks4461 koala lumpur
But Australia was burned. Omg. Please pray that all Koala survived.
God help these beautiful angels
They're too precious
Muito lindos animais 🇧🇷❤
I love wild animal and birds
Awe. So cute.
Koala Habitat is disappearing as fast as the Amazon rain forest.
Is this supposed to be funny?
Lol
Just fell in love with Koalas! Never been able to go to AUS but dammit I want to see one for myself ! We have to protect them, the bushfires are so horrific!
LOVE NAT GEO FOR OVER 50 YEARS 🙏🌎
Koala is my spirit animal!
Absolutely heaps of these cute fuzz balls in South Australia and in Adelaide itself the state's capital city 😍🐨
Drew's Adventures I hope they are safe from the bush fires 😢
@@Yourjokin my state so far has not had any large fires and hopefully none happen that cause any issues for them 😔 🤞🏼
And some Australians dare to say that there is a Koala plague
Boars and toads are plagues and the odd Roo mob that gets out of hand.
Umm there is not a plague of them just larger numbers in some areas!!
Absolutely amazing, most lovely creatures!❤❤❤❤❤❤🐨🐨🐨🐨🐨🐨
I NEED ALL THE ANIMALS OF THIS HEAVENLY KING TO BE A PART OF THIS DREAM I HAVE TOMORROW
Pray For Australia
22 hours of sleeping? I now know what I want to be in my next life.
As Australians it is our responsibility to help protect koalas. I’m 14, any spare change I have sometimes get’s donated to them. You can do what you want but it’s good to help.
Cuddles. Lovable. 🐻
It's sad how we can't do much about the koalas and we can't make them un-endangered. We do try our best to help them but we need more support for them. We do also need to make them more loved in those lovely fascinating creatures!
We need to protect them. They're cute and harmless, they dont hurt anything :((((
tyt mai Actually they do, they hurt me and my brother’s face, I am sad
They can hurt people just bc There cute dosent mean there Harmless.
Same with giant pandas
Girls from the cutest thing koalas are the cutest thing
I hope we all agree we must protect these beautiful creatures.
Koala bears fascinate me. They are adorably cute and I pray the koala habitat thrives and continues to multiply.
God knows how many Koalas of this video has died in bush fire in Australia
I love you koala
Wonderful creation of mother nature!
Now I just wanna buy a big plot of land in East Australia, build a beautiful house and plant tons of the 30 types of eucalyptus trees they like so I can live with the koalas!
Nick Young You would have to be Scrooge Mc Duck
We love you koalas. We will fix the issues we've brought to you. 💫🙌
We must keep koalas and pandas alive. Earth won't be the same without them.
The cutest animals in the planet
My high school mascot was the koala we were known as the Keough Koalas
“Koalas hands and feet are uniquely designed to grip branches” dunno why people don’t believe in God when you can see intelligent design in all aspects of life on earth.
ATB facts omg
„The haven’t developed the thinky thinky parts“...the fun docu about marsupials is so much better
You did a great job there at showing humana what we koalas are like. Nice!
Spend 10% eating and 90% sleeping? Almost makes me wonder why they're here....almost.
They play a critical role to the ecosystem. Time for some reading up.
Aww I wish I could see a koala one day before they extinct... 😭💔 They are my favourite animals...My dream will never come true cause I’m so far away from Australia 😭
You're only a plane ride away from Australia. It's really not much different from a bus ride, but in the air. Get a passport from your post office, save up your money for a ticket, and go as soon as COVID dies down!
Awww 🥰Koalas are my fav animals
Koala so adorable
