The Aboriginal people used them as a source of meat. Various animals including dingos, dogs, foxes and cats will also take them when possible and smaller koalas can be taken by snakes, and larger birds such as eagles, hawks, kites and falcons, etc.
During the late 1800s, koalas became an export commodity for their fur, mostly for export to the USA. Due to koala numbers dwindling and public outrage, laws were enacted protecting the koala and imports were banned by the USA in the late 1920s.
Their greatest threat is humans destroying their habitat.
The koala is not extinct, it is not even endangered. They are considered to be "Secure".
Yes. Man is a main enemy of the koala. Apart from clearing koala habitats, he drives cars without regard for wildlife, allows his unsupervised pets to maul native wildlife, and even engages in torturing harmless wildlife. Domestic dogs are particularly dangerous.
The koala's biggest enemy is man. * Man is a threat to the koala's habitat, constantly cutting down trees for housing and industrial developments, or for farming. * Man releases his dogs unsupervised into bushland, where they can attack defenceless koalas moving between trees. * He introduces foreign species which threaten the koalas, whether they be predators such as foxes, or parasitic mistletoe which destroys gum trees. * Man's cars kill hundreds of koalas every year.

My definition, a domesticated animal doesn't have any natural enemies, but in general, a horse's natural enemies include wolves and large cats such as panthers and mountain lions. Alligators and coyotes also may kill and eat horses.
