Koalas and Wombats: The Untold Story

Out for a ride in the Australian outback, Chris and Martin's horses spook and take off at full gallop. The brothers go flying, Chris catapulting into a tree next to a koala, while Martin lands on the ground. Wombats and koalas are marsupials and are closely related, like first cousins in the creature world, but they have evolved in very different ways. Separated, the brothers explore the two creatures. Chris learns how the koala lives its life high in the trees; Martin sees how the ground-hugging wombat protects itself from predators like the dingo, the Australian wild dog. Coming back together, the brothers realize that different lifestyles make closely related creatures evolve in different ways, while dissimiliar creatures grow to resemble each other when sharing similiar lifestyles.
