Hug You Like Koalas

Faves

IMPORTANT! Koalas can find it very stressful and exhausting to be handled by humans, so if you want a hug you should wait for the koala to make the first move. It’s just simple etiquette.

More facts about koalas:

  1. Koalas have a very low metabolic rate which means they have to conserve energy by sleeping for around 20 hours a day.
  2. Koalas are not bears, they are marsupials of course.
  3. The best Youtube comment I found while looking for koala videos was this: ‘I WANT TO FEED A KOALA A SANDWICH END OF DISCUSSION’

(Koalas only really eat eucalyptus leaves so it probably wouldn’t want that nasty old sandwich, but it’s a nice image.)

I used a lot of videos from Youtube and Vimeo to make this. By way of crediting them, there’s a list of videos used in the description here.
