It is illegal. You cannot own a pet koala anywhere in the world. Koalas are protected, native animals. It does not matter which country of the world you are in: you may not have a pet koala.

In some places, people have koalas living in or regularly wandering through their backyards, but they are not house-friendly animals, and attempts should not be made to interfere with their natural, native activities.

Quite simply, koalas are a protected species. This means it is illegal to have a koala. Few people understand the needs of a koala, and opening up native animals to being owned as pets leads the way to abuse.

No. Wombats are protected species, and not permitted to be kept as pets anywhere. Only certain zoos and sanctuaries, and specially licenced wildlife carers, may look after wombats.
