Are koalas slower than sloths

Answer 1

The Koala is much faster than the sloth. They can run quite quickly along the ground, and they are very efficient climbers. The sloth, at its fastest (when escaping predators), is capable of moving only about 5 metres in one minutes, and usually moves much more slowly. A koala can easily do many times that speed when on the run.

The koala only seems so slow because it feeds almost exclusively on eucalyptus leaves, which are low in nutrition and hard to digest. Koalas' digestive systems are specially made to make the most of the limited nutrients in eucalyptus leaves, but they need to have a slow metabolism in order to digest. Hence, they spend up to 18 hours a day sleeping - but they are capable of moving quickly for short bursts.
