 * History!**

Pelicans are large sea birds with a pouched beak desighned to scoop up fish and water from the sea. You might see them swimming in the water, they find it easy to swim or float as they have short, strong legs and webbed feet. The most common pelican is known to be the Australian Pelican, their population is estimated to be around 400,000 individuals. You will see many pelicans on the beaches around Australia and phillip Island. Koalas have long sharp claws to enable them to climb trees and keep themselves safe up high. The koala is one of the few mammals that has fingerprints, they are a bit similar to human fingerprints. As Koalas are herbivores they have specialy desighned teeth. At the front of their mouth they have sharp teet to bite the eucalyptus leaves, the back teeth near their cheek bone are used for grinding. Wild koalas can be very dangourous as they have sharp claws and they could claw you to pieces in self defence and shock. The koalas in parks that people hold are specialy tamed so that anyone can have a hold. Fairy penguins are on avrage are about 30 to 43 cm tall. Fairy penguins feature smooth black feathers on their back and flippers so when they ar in he water the birds won't see them because the black blends in with the dark ocean. They also are white on their bellies so when seals look up they think that the white is the sun or the light from the surface. Fairy penguins feed on small fish, squid and other small sea creatures. Cone shells can be found in the rock pools at Phillip Island. Although they may look affective with all their patterns and shape, they are very poisonous. If you pick one up it sprays out a dart full of poison and most victims end up off to hospitals.
