Koalas sleep for between 16 and 20 hours a day, but this is over the course of an average day, and not in a single session. The rest of their time is spent feeding and moving to new trees, whilst the males also may conduct their territorial disputes by night (making them essentially nocturnal).

Koalas also do not hibernate. The only Australian marsupial that hibernates is the Mountain Pygmy Possum.

Koalas are awake for between four and eight hours a day, not just two. They are more active at night. During their waking hours, they move from tree to tree, and feed on eucalyptus leaves. At some stage they also need to mate, or the species would not be perpetuated.

Koalas are nocturnal animals, meaning that through most of the day, they sleep. Koalas eat and are most active in the early morning and late afternoon. They do a lot of wandering between trees at night. Occasionally they will eat during the day, but this is not their normal time.

Koalas sleep up to 19 hours a day. That would leave them with 5 or more hours of awake time a day.
