Baby koalas, called joeys, drink mother's milk during their first 6-7 months of life. After 30 weeks, the mother also produces a substance called pap. This substance is a specialised form of the mother's droppings which, having passed through her digestive system, give the joey the enzymes it needs to be able to start digesting the tough gum leaves, making an easier transition for the baby koala to start eating eucalyptus leaves.
