Koalas are endemic to Australia, meaning they are not found in the wild anywhere else in the world. There may be a few US zoos which have permission to have koalas, but regulations controlling the movement of koalas outside of Australia are very strict.

Koalas may not be kept as pets anywhere in the world. Even zoos must prove they are qualified to keep them.
