Man is the biggest threat to the koala's environment, causing loss of food source and habitat loss. Koalas inhabit prime land which man has decided is better used for housing developments. Not only do the koalas lose their sources of shelter and food, they are subject to dog attacks and being hit by cars as suburbia extends further outwards. A prime example of this is southeast Queensland, where koala numbers have dropped to 60% less than what they were a decade ago, entirely due to increased development - and where they now face extinction by 2020.
Koalas are territorial, and they live in complex social communities where each member has a certain number of trees within its territory. When access to these trees is cut off by new roads, the koalas will still try to cross the road, and risk being hit. Relocation of koalas is rarely successful because their territorial and social habits are largely misunderstood.
Another significant factor is predation by introduced species such as dogs and foxes. Bushfires also pose a threat to these animals.
If the animal is a predator, such as a dog, the koala will simply remain in its tree. If the koala is on the ground, it will climb the nearest tree as quickly as possible.
If the animal is not a predator, the koala is unlikely to react in any way. It is territorial only to certain others of its own species, not to animals of different species.
No. A koala will not harm other animals. Even during territorial disputes, koalas rarely harm each other.

One of the animals that lives in southeastern Australia is the koala. The kangaroo, echidna, and the galah are other animals from this area.
Kiwi do not harm any other species except for the insects, larvae and other small animals on which they feeds.
Human activities like eating flesh of other animal harm them
None. Koala are the only animal in their family, which is the Phascolarctidae family.
