Koalas are not poached for their fur. There was a time when the population of these animals dropped to dangerously low levels, due to the fur trade. this was in the late 1800s and early 1900s, but the fur trade was unfortunately quite legitimate. There was a great market in the US and the UK for koala skins. They are now protected by law.
