koalas
Older koalas are generally too large for predators. The main predators in trees are creatures such as quolls and pythons, but these do not prey on adult koalas. The main predators of adult koalas are on the ground. Dogs are particularly dangerous for koalas, but they cannot climb trees, so the only time adult koalas are in danger is when they are on the ground, moving between their home trees.

The correct name for e so-called native cat is "quoll". these animals, which are marsupials (like koalas) do not generally pose a risk to koalas. Koalas and quolls are around the same size, and quolls a unlikely to challenge adult koalas, or to even try and take a joey from a female koala's back. However, quolls are certainly a threat to juvenile koalas which have only just left their mothers. Non-native, feral cats are considerably more dangerous, and certainly eat koalas.
