Unusual animals
Australia is home to many strange and amazing animals.
The most known are kangaroos. They are animals with short
front legs and very strong long back legs that let them jump
very high and travel to more than fifty kilometres an hour.
Kangaroo are herbivores: they eat grass and leaves. They
are social animals; in fact, they live in groups of about twelve.
Another famous animal is the koala. Koalas and kangaroos
are marsupials; they have a pouch, a kind of pocket, on their
belly, to keep their babies.
Koalas live in eucalyptus trees, where they eat one kilogram of
leaves per day; their diet is very poor and not at all energetic,
so they sleep for up to eighteen hours a day.
