Koalas are essentially solitary animals, but they live in communities where the social structure is quite complex. Koalas are territorial, but each koala within the social group has its own specific range for feeding, which may or may not overlap the range of its neighbour. There is always one dominant male in each social group, but he is by no means the only male.

Koalas do feed alone and travel alone, but they understand their own social structure. When one of their community dies, another does not immediately move in and take its place. It takes about a year for the scent of the previous occupant to fade, and only then will another koala move in to its range.

Do koalas live with a group or just with its family?

Koalas live alone. They are solitary animals that live neither in groups nor in families. Joeys stay with their mothers until the new breeding season, but that is all.


What size family do koalas live in?

Koalas are solitary animals, although they do live within complex social communities in which their own home trees overlap with those of other koalas. Male koalas do not live in families. Females carry their joey (baby koala) until the next joey is born, so they tend to live in families of just two.


Where in Victoria do koalas live?

Koalas live almost anywhere in Victoria, but less so in the western regions of the state.

Koalas can be found in open bushland, sub-alpine bushland, coastal bushland and anywhere where their preferred food source is.
