Why does a koala eat eucalyptus leaves?

Koalas eat eucalyptus leaves because they are specially adapted for this purpose. 

Koalas live in eucalyptus trees and eat only a few types of gum leaves from which they get all nutrients and water requirements.

The name koala is thought to mean "no drink" in several native Aboriginal tongues.
