Blue Mountains National Park is located on the eastern Australian coast near Sydney in New South Wales. There is a breathtaking scenery and an abundance of wildlife. Marsupials, such as the kangaroo, the wallaby, the wombat and the koala or birds such as the kookaburra, the ibis or the always very noisy cockatoo are to be found here. Koalas are not bears, but MARSUPIALS, which means that their young are born immature & they develop further in the safety of a pouch. Its incorrect to call them koala bears. Their correct name is simply koalas. Koalas are mostly nocturnal. Nocturnal animals are awake at night and asleep during the day. Koalas, however, sleep for part of the night and also sometimes move about in the daytime. They often sleep for up to 18-20 hours each day. Koalas do not live in rainforests or desert areas. They live in the tall eucalypt forests and low eucalypt woodlands of mainland eastern Australia and on some islands off the southern and eastern coasts. Queensland, NSW, Victoria and South Australia are the only states where koalas are found naturally in the wild.
