Endangered animal koala bear Though often called the koala "bear," this cuddly animal is not a bear at all, it is a marsupial. Koalas live in eastern Australia, where the eucalyptus trees they love are most plentiful. In fact, they rarely leave these trees. That is why they are usually called "treehuggers". Koalas have thick, grayish fur, with white on their chests, inner arms, and ears. They have large furry ears and leathery noses.The koala has large, sharp claws to assist with climing tree trunks. The koala is one of the few mammals that have fingerprints. Koalas do not live in big groups, they rather prefer to be alone. Koalas consume eucalyptus leaves and
punakas või hõbedane, kõhupoolel heledam.Koala kinnitub puu külge tugevate küünistega, mida ta vajutab puukoore sisse. Küünised on eriti tugevasti arenenud kahel teineteisele vastandataval varbal. Need on piisavalt tugevad, et kanda looma raskust. Tsüsiit, konjuktiviit ja sinusiit on koaalade tavalised haigused. Sinusiit tüsistub sageli, eriti talvel, kopsupõletikuga. Koala toitub ainult mõnede eukalüptiliikide lehtedest. Uus- Lõuna-Walesis on nendeks tavaliselt Eucalyptus maculata ja Eucalyptus tereticornise lehed, mis sisaldavad eriti rikkalikult eukalüptiõli. Victorias on selliseks liigiks mannaeukalüpt (Eucalyptus viminalis). Päevas vajab täiskasvanud loom ligi 1,1 kg eukalüptilehti. Muid taimi ei püüa süüa isegi nälgiv koala. Koalal pole looduslikke vaenlasi. Kiskjad tema liha ei söö. Arvatavasti sellepärast, et see on liiga läbi imbunud eukalüptiõlist. Tal pole vaenlasi peale inimesete. Enne ümberasujate saabumist
forests (1.) that occupy the space between the Great Dividing Range and the eastern coast. Westward from the Great Dividing Range the wet forests give place to beautiful grasslands with some trees . These grasslands are called the savannas (2.). Farther west the trees disappear and the bushlands (3.) begin. The real desert (4.) occupies the centre of the Western Plateau. In the very southwest there are thin forests of evergreen trees (5.). Most of Australian trees are kinds of eucalyptus trees (or gum trees to Australians) and acacia ( wattle to Australians). Eucalyptus trees are found everywhere in Australia. There are many kinds of them and they greatly differ in size. One kind, the great mountain ash, can grow to 120 metres and it grows in the wet forests in the eastern part of the continent.These strong trees do not die when there are forest fires. Some other kinds are small bushes in the semi-deserts.Eucalyptuses give the local people timber and eucalyptus oil.

Täiskasvanud isend sööb ainult eukalüptilehti. Sellega seoses on tal hästi arenenud umbsool, mille pikkus ulatub 2,4 meetrini. Koala ei joo midagi (siit ka Uus-Lõuna-Walesi hõimude nimetus: ei joo), talle piisab lehtede niiskussisaldusest. Koala eelistab eukalüptide värskeid, noori võrseid. Söömiseks peenestab ta lehed ja mälub läbi, kogudes massi põsetaskusse. Koala toitub ainult mõnede eukalüptiliikide lehtedest. Uus-Lõuna-Walesis on nendeks tavaliselt Eucalyptus maculata ja Eucalyptus tereticornise lehed, mis sisaldavad eriti rikkalikult eukalüptiõli.

Mõned eukalüptilehed sisaldavad sinihapet. Seda on leitud ka noortest võrsetest. On võimalik, et koalade valivus eukalüptiliikide üle on põhjustatud sellest, et nad oskavad mürki ära tunda või siis
The population of 22,7 million is highly urbanised and heavily concentrated in eastern states due to geography and climate. A highly developed country, Australia is the world's 12th largest economy and has the world's fifthhighest per capita income. Enviroment. Although most of Australia is semiarid or desert, it includes a diverse range of habitats from alpine heaths to tropical rainforests. Australian forests are mostly made up of evergreen species, particularly eucalyptus trees in the less arid regions, wattles replace them in drier regions and deserts as the most dominant species. Among wellknown Australian fauna are the monotremes (the platypus and echidna); a host of marsupials, including the kangaroo, koala, and wombat, and birds such as the emu and the kookaburra. The koala and eucalyptus form an iconic australian pair pair. Culture.

anti-English jokes to the English, anti-lawyer jokes to the lawyers and anti- mother-in-law jokes to mothers-in-law. Is is true? Did Australians laugh about you? They are very easy-going by nature. They put a high value on their leisure time. I hope that when I go to Australia, I will see kangaroos and koalas. I have seen they only in Zoo, not in nature. Did you see any animals in nature? Do you know that the cutest animal spends 80% of its time asleep in eucalyptus tree? I didn't know it before. Australian most famous landmarks are an ancient rock in the desert, a modern opera house in Sydney harbour and a huge coral reef off the north-east coast. I remember when you talked about your dream you wanted to visit Sydney opera house. Did you made your dream true? I hope you did it! I hope, that you answer me soon. With best wishes, xxx

So, the rainforests occupy the space between the Great Dividing Range and the eastern coast and also the northern coast. In the west they give place to beautiful grasslands with some trees called the savannas. Further west the trees disappear and the savannas are replaced by the bush lands. The real desert occupies the centre of the Western Plateau and in the very south- west there are thin forests of evergreen trees. Most of the Austrian trees are various kinds of eucalyptus and acacia. Some eucalyptuses are small bushes in the semi deserts, some are the main trees in the savannas, but the biggest eucalyptuses grow as tall as hundred metres. Eucalyptuses give the people timber and eucalyptus oil. Of 600 kinds of acacias, the golden wattle is the best know because it is the national flower of Australia. Of the other trees there are bottle trees in the savannas and tree-ferns in the tropical forests and many others.
Australia is famous for its "outback," the remote lands of the interior. The desert outback covers most of the interior. It is too hot, dry and barren to support many people. Geographic Landmarks Australia also has some mountainous areas and plateaus scattered throughout the country. The Blue Mountains, on the southeastern end of Australia, get their name from the blue haze caused by oil droplets given off from the eucalyptus trees. Geographic Landmarks As an island, Australia also has many beautiful coastal beaches. Over 70% of Australians now live in cities or towns. Most of this population lives in the eastern and southern coasts, and around Perth in the west. Fun Facts About Australian Geography No part of Australia is more than 1000 km from the ocean and a beach. (The point in the world that's the furthest from any ocean
There are five distinguishable natural zones in Australia. In the very east there are wet forests that occupy the space between the Great Dividing Range and the eastern coast. The wet forests give place to beautiful grasslands with some trees called the savannas. Farther west the trees disappear and the bushlands begin. The real desert occupies the centre of the Western Plateau. In the very southwest there are thin forests of evergreen trees. Most of Australian trees are kinds of eucalyptus (or gum tree to Australians) and acacia (wattle of Australians). Eucalyptuses give the people timber and eucalyptus oil. Of 600 kinds of acacias the golden wattle, the national flower of Australia, is the best known. Of other trees there grow bottle trees in the savannas, tree ferns in the tropical forests and many others. Lakes Australia has much underground water. There are only few lakes which are full of water only after it rains. The biggest lake is Lake Eyre which is a salt lake.

Forests cover about 6 per cent of Australia. The majority of Australia's trees are eucalyptuses. The wood of eucalyptus is used for making paper, floorboards and furniture. Although Australia is surrounded by water, its fishing resources are limited. They catch shellfish, lobsters, oysters, prawns and scallops, also salmon and tuna. Tourism. Australia has a variety of tourist attractions. They include wildlife sanctuaries, sandy beaches, the Great Barrier Reef, the Australian Alps and much more. Tourism aids the economy.

All are prized for their economic value. Laurisilva is a unique type of subtropical rainforest found in few areas of Europe and the world: in the Azores, and in particular on the island of Madeira, there are large forests of endemic Laurisilva forests (the latter protected as a natural heritage preserve). There are several species of diverse mammalian fauna, including the fox, badger, Iberian lynx, Iberian Wolf, wild goat (Capra pyrenaica), wild cat (Felis silvestris), hare, weasel,

Skisogeensed sekretoorsed õlimahutid esinevad eukalüptidel (Eucalyptus, sugukond mürdilised, Myrtaceae). Need tekivad ühe epidermiraku järglastest, mis diferentseeruvad epiteeliks ja piirderakkudeks. Edasises arengus kujuneb epiteelirakkude vahele skisogeenne mahuti. Samalaadse tekkega on ka okaspuude vaigukäigud,

The last person to walk through those familiar rooms was my enemy. From the corner of my eye, I could almost see my mother standing in the shade of the big eucalyptus tree where I'd played as a child.
