Contrary to popular belief, koalas, kangaroos and other marsupial mammals do not have their young in the mother's pouch. The young joeys are born from the normal birth canal, from where they must make their journey, clinging to the mother's fur, up to the pouch. For koalas, this occurs while the koalas are still in the tree. They do not give birth on the ground.
Koala breeding season is from September to March, which is Spring through to early Autumn.
