Ever wonder if eucalyptus used to have nutritional value and it started evolving it away in order to not be eaten, and Koalas are the only ones who evolved with it in order to keep eating it, but their digestive tracks became so specialized that they're now eating it because they couldn't manage anything else and they're totally dependent on having to stick with it?
