The science of sleep is full of delightful contradictions! Biologists stare blankly when questioned about simple creatures needing excessive sleep - they're literally studying organisms without brains that somehow need more rest than we do. Meanwhile, doctors transform into sophisticated Pooh Bears when defending the sacred "9-hour rule" that somehow applies to all humans regardless of age, genetics, or lifestyle. But zoologists? They're grinning ear to ear explaining koalas' 20-hour snooze marathons because the answer is hilariously simple: eucalyptus leaves are basically nature's sleeping pills with almost zero nutritional value. These sleepy marsupials aren't lazy - they're just high on leaf juice and conserving the tiny bit of energy they get from their terrible diet choice!
