Yes. Koalas mostly live in Eucalyptus trees, as they feed almost exclusively on eucalyptus leaves. However, they can also be found in certain species of melaleuca and wattle (acacia) trees, though they do not feed on these.
Koalas only live in trees. Eucalyptus trees are where they find food and shelter. However, koalas are at their most vulnerable when they are on the ground, moving between the trees in their home range.
Eucalyptus trees provide food and shelter for the koala. They feed almost exclusively on eucalyptus leaves and flowers, and they do not need to drink regularly as their moisture needs are met almost entirely by the leaves they ingest.
Koalas are quite defenceless. They are safe from ground-dwelling predators when they remain high in eucalyptus trees.
Yes. Koalas both eat and live in trees. They live in eucalyptus (gum) trees, and eat exclusively the gum leaves and occasionally flowers of the eucalyptus trees. Koalas spend most of their lives in trees, and will have a dozen or so trees in their home range which they will venture between for eating and shelter.
It is when they are moving between trees that they are most vulnerable to dogs and cars, especially if roads have been built between their home trees.
No. Koalas only live in trees. However, they do have a range of home trees, and they move between these trees, which necessitates walking across the ground To reach their other trees.
Koalas live on the upper branches of eucalyptus trees. They do not make their homes in hollow trees, or build nests.
Land-in trees.

No. Koalas eat eucalyptus and live in those and other trees. Koalas are in danger from humans cutting down trees. No trees, no koalas.
Yes. Koalas live in certain species of eucalyptus trees in Australia's eastern half of the mainland.
Koalas stay safe by remaining in trees. They are at their most vulnerable when they are on the ground, moving between their home trees.
Older koalas are generally too large for predators. The main predators in trees are creatures such as quolls and pythons, but these do not prey on adult koalas. The main predators of adult koalas are on the ground. Dogs are particularly dangerous for koalas, but they cannot climb trees, so the only time adult koalas are in danger is when they are on the ground, moving between their home trees.
Koalas are arboreal, spendng most of their time in trees. However, they do also descend to the ground to roam between their range trees.
We are, actually. We are cutting down trees, which is where the koalas live.
koalas live in forest biomes. They live in eucalyptus trees which is also their main food source
No. Koalas do not live in any desert areas because deserts do not have eucalyptus trees which koalas depend on to survive.
No. Koalas cannot live in savanna. They need to be in an area where there are many gum trees (eucalyptus) of the specific type they need to feed. Savanna, or grassland, does not have enough gum trees for koalas.
Yes, koalas do leave their tree. If they do it is because they are going to another tree. Koalas do not usually drink water.Further information:Koalas regularly leave their trees. They have a number of trees in their home range, which may overlap with other koalas' trees, and their home range may cover up to a square kilometre in area. Koalas move between these trees, and when they are on the ground is when they are at their most vulnerable to being hit by cars or killed by dogs.
They're not. Koalas do not live in the deciduous forest. They live in eucalyptus bushland, which is evergreen. Eucalyptus trees, on which koalas feed, do not lose their leaves.
