Not at all. The diet of koalas and Kangaroos is very different. Koalas are specialist feeders, with eir diet restricted to the leaves and flowers of certain species of eucalypus trees, specifically those of the genus Symphyomyrtus. Kangaroos are more generalist feeders, eating grasses, leaves and shoots of many native flora and grains. In the case of the tree kangaroos, they eat fruits from trees in tropical rainforest, while the tiny Musky rat-kangaroo eats certain fungi, insects and insect larvae as well.
