Giant pandas and koalas are both mammals but, apart from sharing common mammalian characteristics, that is where the similarity ends, especially given that koalas are marsupials, not bears like pandas.

Some of the similarities include:

  • having fur
  • breathe through lungs
  • being warm blooded vertebrates
  • four limbs
  • the ability to climb
  • feed their young on mothers' milk
  • similar internal organs
  • both are herbivores, although bamboo shoots form the primary food source for the panda, while koalas feed almost exclusively on eucalyptus leaves

Do koalas and pandas eat the same food?

Koalas and pandas do not eat the same food. They are completely unrelated animals. Koalas are marsupials which are native to Australia; they are not bears. They feed almost exclusively on eucalyptus leaves and flowers. Pandas are native to selected parts of Asia, and feed mostly on bamboo shoots.


If koalas are marsupials and pandas are bears how are they under the same levels of classification?

they really aren't. some people say because they are both bears. but in reality the aren't. just because they both have the word "bear" in their name... don't think much about it. OK. the truth is that koalas are marsupials and pandas are bears... GET IT RIGHT PEOPLE!!!
