    These bookmarks containing lucky koala poop are sure to be helpful aids to passing exams!  Why koala poop? (Here I have to explain a Japanese pun.  In Japanese to "fail an exam" is to "fall in the test.")  Koalas spend 18-20 hours a day in trees and never fall out, even when sleeping so their poop must certainly be lucky for anyone not wanting to "fall in their exam."  (Another pun refers to "un," which has the meaning of luck and is the first syllable in "unchi" or poop.) So, koala un(chi) will bring good luck.

    You will be glad to know that these bookmarks were each made lovingly by the zoo staff.  They are also eco-friendly, as they are made from koala poop and recycled milk cartons.


    ★なぜコアラ?
    コアラは1日18~20時間木の上で寝ていますが、木から落ちることはありません。寝ても落ちないコアラのウン(運)だから縁起がいい!

    ★コアラのウン(運)チペーパーとはどういうもの?
    当園のコアラのウンチと牛乳パックからできています。1枚1枚職員が手づくりしました。

    Too bad I did not have any family members taking exams...
