Description
When we went to the San Diego zoo they had the Koala exhibit going on (Koalafornia as they called it). We arrived early in the morning and the exhibit was close to the entrance. They had about 12 koala's there and about 10 were sleeping (even with all the chaos around them from the crowds.)
As we passed by later in the day, alas pretty much all of them were still sleeping. LOL. They reminded me of my cats as there is never enough time in the day for naps.
Anyway, sleeping or not they are cute as can be.
Thanks for looking and any comments :-).

Superb capture my friend. God bless.
Yeah, Koala's Sleep Most the Day Excellent Shot!!!!
Precious and nice shot ;o]
Love the picture.
The adorableness just killed me. Wicked nails, though.
Really cute guy and beautiful capture, details are awesome.
What a gift to be able to sleep regardless of the maelstrom!
AWWWWWW! I often see these guys in the wild, and honestly their growls sound exactly like what you would imagine lions or tigers to sound like! Very intimidating if you don't know what's making the noise! They sleep so much because of their need to digest and absorb nutrients from Eucalyptus leaves which are such a poor source of nutrition. Although there are over 600 varieties of Eucalyptus trees within a koalas' home range, they may actually only be able to consume ten or less species.
I can't imagine a cuter photo of a Koala than this one!
Soo cute!! ♥
Wonderful shot !
Look at it all curled up and napping. Sooooo Cute:D
Comfort zone ;)
Coca Koala :) Neat shot!

Nothing beats a nice snooze in the midday sun. Lovely warm tones in this shot . Fine work.
Great shot , sit me down with a book and I can nod off like that anytime.
