Home of Koala Bears?

see i didn't know that

quote:
From Wikipedia:

The Koala (Phascolarctos cinereus; sometimes also spelled Phascolarctus cinereus) is a thickset arboreal marsupial herbivore endemic to Australia, and the only representative of its family, Phascolarctidae.

The koala's scientific name comes from the Greek: phaskolos meaning "pouch" and; arktos meaning "bear". The cinereus part is Latin and means "ash-colored". Some people refer to the koala as a koala bear�this is technically incorrect, since koala is not part of the bear family. The word "koala" comes from the aboriginal word meaning "does not drink".
