Firstly, koalas are not bears.

There is no particular name for someone who studies koalas.

People who study the field of animal Biology are zoologists. While there are specialised areas within this broad parameter (such as ornithologists, who study birds), there is no particular name for one who studies koalas. It is too narrow a field.
