After mating, the koala pregnancy only lasts for around 35 days. When the young koala is ready to be born, the female sits on a branch. The cloaca is used for both mating and for excretement. During birth, fluid comes out of the female's cloaca first, then the baby koala. It is born without hair.
Koalas are marsupials, which means the baby koala is born in the early stages of development, and then further develops in the mother's pouch. The still developing koala must make a journey to it's mother's pouch after it's born. To do so, it has strong arms that grasp it's mother's fur as it makes it's way to the safety of her pouch.
Natural protection for koalas includes their ability to quickly climb trees to evade predators, as well as their very sharp claws. Their colouring gives them natural camouflage as well, as they shelter in the upper branches of eucalyotus trees.
Although humans cause the biggest threat to koalas, humans also allow for some protection.
More specifically, there are several laws that protect koalas. They include various federal, state and local laws, depending on the region. Some examples are as follows:
Koalas have a woolly light to dark grey fur with brown and white patches and a cream belly. They have a broad head with small eyes, large furry ears and a distinctive large black nose.
