No, koalas are not good pets to have at home. They have specific dietary and environmental needs that are difficult to meet in a domestic setting, and they can also be aggressive and carry diseases that can be harmful to humans. It is illegal to keep koalas as pets in many places.

Are koalas good pets?

They are not. 1. It is illegal to keep a koala as a pet. 2. Most people do not understand that koalas cannot eat gum leaves from just any eucalyptus tree, so they have specialised dietary needs. 3. Koalas spend between 20 and 22 hours a day sleeping. They would not make good pets if one was looking for an affectionate and playful pet. Quite simply, koalas are a protected species. This means it is illegal to have a koala. Few people understand the needs of a koala, and opening up native animals to being owned as pets leads the way to abuse.
