Keep reading to learn more about how animals get their zzzz’s. Some animals are light sleepers. Giraffes sleep for just a few hours each day. For giraffes, it is not safe to sleep much more than that. Giraffes have long, thin legs. When they lie down, it is hard to get back up. So giraffes mostly take short naps. They sleep standing up. Horses sleep standing up, too. Like giraffes, they need to be ready to run away. Horses do need to lie down for some of their sleep, though. Giraffes do, too. The animals get about 20 or 30 minutes of deep sleep while lying down. Some animals are big sleepers. Koalas live in Australia. These animals eat only one food: leaves. Leaves do not give them much energy. So koalas sleep most of the time. They sleep for about 20 hours in total. Lions sleep a lot, too. They can feel safe while sleeping. After all, they are predators, which hunt other animals. Who would bother (打扰) a sleeping lion? Dolphins are always swimming in the sea. So how do they sleep?
