Koalas should only ever be cared for by a registered wildlife carer. Their needs are very specialised.
See the related link below for more information on being an Australian wildlife carer.
Koalas and pandas do not look alike at all.
A common natural disaster in the habitat of koalas (which are not bears) is bushfires. Bushfires rage through koala habitats, burning eucalyptus trees and undergrowth, and therefore posing a severe threat to the survival of koalas.
No. Finding eucalyptus trees is instinctive for koalas.
Previous answers have stated "koalas", but koalas are not bears.
Koalas live a mainly solitary life. They do not look after each other, except in the case of a mother caring for her joey.
look it up...
Koalas have woolly light to dark grey fur with brown and white patches and a cream belly. Southern koalas are darker in colour than their northern counterparts and have longer fur.
Adult koalas are simply called koalas.
No, koalas live in Australia. Australians are very protective of their koalas, and leave very few into zoos. In fact, I think there might be NO koalas in zoos; that would be a fun topic to look up. =) Hope this helped!
Koalas are not primates. Koalas are marsupials.
Absolutely not. Koalas are protected by law, and they may not be kept as pets under any circumstances. Wildlife carers have a licence to look after injured or sick koalas, while sanctuaries and zoos have a licence to keep koalas for display purposes.
Koalas do not actively employ camouflage, but their natural colouring and tendency to stay still for hours does help them to camouflage. Koalas are various shades of light to darker grey, with a cream belly. When they nestle high in gum trees, the light filtering past the gum leaves has a dappled look on both the koalas and the gum branches which are similarly dappled. This makes it much more difficult to detect koalas in trees.
