Koalas have four limbs, and they use these t help them move. Koalas walk from tree to tree, and they are also capable of running on all fours for short bursts. They climb tall, straight trees quickly and efficiently, using their sharp claws.

Why do koalas never go on the ground?

Koalas are an arboreal species, meaning their habitat is actually trees. Koalas have very strong claws suitable for gripping tall, straight, smooth trees and climbing. The shape and design of their fingers enables them to act like opposable thumbs. Between their first and second "fingers" is a large gap, which enables them to also grip tree branches comfortably, whilst their hind legs have one toe set at a wide angle. They also have toes with thick pads which enable them to sit comfortably in a tree all day.

When koalas move do they move together or alone?

Koalas do not travel except when they are moving around between their home trees. Koalas are essentially solitary animals, but they live in communities where the social structure is quite complex. Koalas are territorial, but each koala within the social group has its own specific range for feeding, which may or may not overlap the range of its neighbour. There is always one dominant male in each social group, but he is by no means the only male. Koalas do feed alone and travel alone, but they understand their own social structure. When one of their community dies, another does not immediately move in and take its place. It takes about a year for the scent of the previous occupant to fade, and only then will another koala move in to its range.
