Basically, its food is all around it. Koalas could spend their whole lives in only one or two eucalyptus trees, not even leaving to drink water. It gets all the moisture it needs from the eucalyptus leaves.
Actually, koalas have a quite complex system of home range trees. Their home range may be a square kilometre in size, and they frequently move from tree to tree within their home range, in search of food. Koalas' individual home ranges overlap the home range of other koalas in their vicinity.
Koalas must climb certain species of eucalyptus trees to find their food. They eat only a few types of gum leaves from which they get all nutrients and most water requirements (they very rarely drink water, except in extreme circumstances such as extended heatwaves). They also occasionally eat the gum tree blossoms. Two of the koala's digits on their forelimbs act as opposable thumbs, enabling koalas to reach out and grasp the leaves they want.
While there are hundreds of different eucalyptus species in Australia, koalas eat from only about 60 of the species, consuming about half a kilogram of eucalyptus leaves every day. Within these 60 species, there are about a dozen of the "preferred" variety.
