Eucalyptus leaves are actually pretty poisonous but due to the koalas special dietary system it can avoid the poisons and collect the water instead. The koala may have to eat many leaves to collect enough water (1.134 kg a day) but the bacteria benefits by surviving in the koala`s system. If it lived outside the body it would not survive.

What are the characteristics of a mutualistic relationship?
The term Mutualism, when referring to organisms and animals, is when both organisms benefit from each other. For example, certain fish feed off of a larger fish. This provides nnutrition for one fish, while the other gets a bath. Also, cows will benefit from certain types of bacteria, they benefit from the cellulose they produce, and the bacteria benefit from having nutrients in the host environment. I hope that helps!
