What type of home does a koala live in?

Answer 1

Koalas do not build nests, dig burrows or live in tree hollows. Their home is in the branches of gum trees, or eucalyptus trees. They are specially adapted to sit comfortably in gum trees for most of the day.

Answer 2

A Koala does not make a "shelter" like many animals do. Its home is the branches of a tree, and its wider home is made up of several trees, which are called home trees. The area which is covered by these trees is called the Koala's home range, and may extend for up to 1-2 square kilometres. Koalas are not particular about which tree they spend their days in, and their home trees often overlap the home trees of other koalas within their home range.

Answer 3

Koalas do not make homes of any kind. They do not make nests or shelter within hollows. They simply cling to the limbs of the eucalyptus trees they inhabit, or wedge themselves in the forks between the branches.

Answer 4

A koala's home looks like a eucalyptus tree. It is tall enough to keep the koala free from predators, and contains large branches where the koala can nestle in the fork of the tree.

Answer 5

Koalas do not make homes of any kind. They do not make nests or shelter within hollows. They simply cling to the limbs of the eucalyptus trees they inhabit.

Answer 6

Koalas do not make homes of any kind. They do not make nests or shelter within hollows. They simply cling to the limbs of the eucalyptus trees they inhabit.
