Best Answer

There is little information available on the speed a koala can actually run, although there are suggestions that they can reach a speed of 10 km per hour for short bursts.

Koalas have also been observed running reasonably quickly along the road, almost too fast for jogging humans to catch up to them and move them out of harm's way.

Koalas do not see as well as they hear and smell, but their vision is far-ranging enough for them to be able to notice moving predators from a distance.

Koalas have a home range that may cover up to a square kilometre in area. They may move every couple of days.

Koalas have a range of home trees, between which they travel. Their total range can be as much as 1km x 1km, and about 43 hectares in area, though smaller ranges are more usual.

Koalas do not, and probably cannot, run very far. They only run in short bursts or fifty metres at most.
