Koala joeys stay in the mother's pouch for several months, only coming out for short periods of time until they are ready to stay out for longer. the mother's pouch provides all the protection they need. They also spend weeks using their strong claws to cling securely to the mother's back.
Koalas are marsupials, meaning that most of them (not all) have pouches. Koalas carry their young, which is called a joey, in an external pouch positioned low down on their abdomen. When the joey outgrows the pouch, it then clings to the mother's back for several more months. This helps to keep it safe as it is not left alone.
Young koalas (joeys) spend the first few months of their life in the mother's abdominal pouch. They do not emerge until they are old enough to cling to their mother's back. They spend a couple more months with the mother koala.
Kangaroo joeys develop in their mother's pouch. They do not leave the pouch at all for many months.
The young of kangaroos (joeys) remain in the mother's pouch, or marsupium, while they develop, and until they are independent enough to live outside the pouch.
the baby koala does not look funny but it is very cute =]
They reproduce koala babies
Usually all the time
Each of Australia's state governments enacted laws to protect the koala from around the late 1930s.
they protect by keeping them safe...
No. Young koalas are called joeys, just like the young of all marsupials.The term 'cub' is reserved for bears, and koalas are notbears, despite the misnomer of "koala bear" often being applied.
The male koala does not have a pouch for the simple reason that the male koala has no part in the raising of the young joey. The only male marsupial which had a pouch was the Thylacine, now extinct. The Thylacine, or Tasmanian tiger, had a pouch to protect its reproductive parts whilst running through thick undergrowth. The pouch had no puspose in helping to raise the young.
