There is no aboriginal word for "koala bear" because such a creature does not exist.The animal is a koala. There are no bears in Australia.There are many aboriginal words for koala, because there were originally over 250 aboriginal dialects, although not all of the indigenous people of Australia lived where koalas do. Some of these words are colah, koolah, koolewong and colo.The term "koala" is believed to have been derived from the Dharuk Aboriginal language, in which the word for these marsupials was "gula" (koola).The first known record of the koala by Europeans came during the time Governor Hunter commanded the NSW colony. After his men returned from an expedition into the Blue Mountains, on 26 January 1798, one reported seeing a new type of animal, resembling a sloth in its movements, which the local natives called a "cullawine".It would seem the word "koala" has derived from a combination of these two Aboriginal words.
