Are koalas dangerous?

Koalas are not dangerous.

no not to koalas and most marsupials the leaves are sweet

Koalas can be quite dangerous, if they are in the wild DO NOT TOUCH THEM, if you are at a petting zoo and the person who works there says its ok to touch and pet them then YOU CAN TOUCH THEM

Koalas can and will bite if they feel threatened. They also have long claws that can scratch you. Koalas are not very dangerous, but they are also wild animals. Just because they look cute and cuddly does not mean that they cannot injure you.

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.

The main predation of adult koalas comes from introduced feral animals like the fox and from domestic pets. Dogs in suburban areas are particularly dangerous, attacking and killing even grown-up koalas.

The correct name for e so-called native cat is "quoll". these animals, which are marsupials (like koalas) do not generally pose a risk to koalas. Koalas and quolls are around the same size, and quolls a unlikely to challenge adult koalas, or to even try and take a joey from a female koala's back. However, quolls are certainly a threat to juvenile koalas which have only just left their mothers. Non-native, feral cats are considerably more dangerous, and certainly eat koalas.

Yes. A wild koala has very substantial claws which can cause a lot of damage. Some zoos and parks have tame koalas, but the keeper must be on hand and the time limited for holding the koalas.

One of the main predators of koalas are dingoes, and there are no dingoes on Kangaroo Island. Large areas of Kangaroo Island are protected, which means there are limits to where and how many domestic pets people can have. Feral cats and domestic dogs are two of the biggest killers of koalas. Another dangerous introduced species for koalas is the fox, but strict controls have meant there are no foxes on Kangaroo Island.

There are few natural predators of the koala. Young koalas are vulnerable to owls or pythons. These attacks rare and are insignificant compared to the human related threats and impacts. The main predation of koalas these days comes from introduced ferals like the Fox and from domestic pets. Dogs in suburban areas are particularly dangerous, attacking and killing koalas. Goannas, dingoes, powerful owls, wedge-tailed eagles and other birds of prey, pythons, and foxes all eat koalas, particularly young ones. The quoll is the only native carnivorous mammal capable of climbing trees to get to koalas.
