According to it, Koalas sleep about 22 hours a day and sloths sleep about 20 hours a day (although wikipedia differs on both of these numbers, it does have Koalas sleeping more).
So all these years I've been telling my kids not to be lazy and sloth-like, I should have been telling them not to be lazy and koala-like.
Although Koalas are so much cuter than sloths!
I still prefer the Koala! It's much cuter and has a better name. Sloth sounds too slothlike!
ReplyDeleteAgreed!
ReplyDeleteKoalas are cuddly too, I have

Don't be deceived. They smell and are very cranky animals! LOL. True, they sleep all day and munch on leaves from gum trees (also called eucalyptus trees) in between sleeping.
