Yes. Koalas are native Australian mammals, all species of which are protected by law, whether or not they are endangered. Koalas may not be hunted, caught or kept as pets.This legislation came about in the first half of the 20th century, when koalas were driven almost to extinction as a result of being in demand for their fur, particularly by the US and UK markets. Once laws were put into place to protect them, the koala population recovered significantly.
