Australias coat of arms – the official emblem of the Australian Government – was granted by George V in 1912. The arms consist of a shield containing the badges of the six states. The supporters are native Australian fauna – a kangaroo and an emu. A yellow-flowered native plant, wattle, also appears in the design.

Australians really love nature. They try to protect their nature and their animals.

The koala is a small marsupial that lives in Australia. Koalas are arboreal, they spend most of their time in eucalyptus trees. These nocturnal ( most active at night) animals spend 18 to 20 hours each day resting and sleeping, they spend much of the night eating. Koalas are not bears, their closest relative is the wombat. The soft , woolly fur is light gray to brown, and it has patches of white on the chest, neck and ears. –this fur protects them from cold weather and rain. Baby koalas ( called joeys ) live in their mother’s backwards-facing pouch for months. These herbivores eat mostly eucalyptus, chewing these tough leaves using their powerful jaws. They store unchewed food in cheek poches.
