@Tropicool1679 They have no natural predators, only introduced ones such as dingoes and dogs. The biggest impact on the koala is habitat loss, ie due to human beings. They were hunted extensively for their fur in the C19 which nearly wiped them out. They are a protected species now.

Besides, human hunters. Do Koala's have any natural predators? BTW I hope it's Illegal to hunt Koalas. I love this animal.

@highburycatherine I think you mean a Drop Bear, like the Kanga the Koala is also the cousin of the Drop Bear but the Koala won't eat a human

"In the wild Koalas can live 12-14 years. But if someone is taking care of them, or if they are in captivity they can live 16-20 years. Many koalas are killed by hunters for their fur because it is so soft and smooth Each day a koala bear eats 40 oz of eucalyptus leaves. Koalas live only in Eastern Australia. They live and sleep in eucalyptus trees, because it is hot, dry, and light there A meal gives a koala all the food and water it needs."

@GianTheMan91 sadly no, it's illegal here in Australia and also the rest of the world, unless you're a wildlife carer but you must return it to the wild.

They are just made to eat what they eat. They are native animals and eucalypts are native trees, so its a good arrangement. Their teeth/mouths and digestive systems are perfectly designed to eat eucalyptus leaf and get all their required nutrients and even most of their hydration from these leaves alone.

no, they are herbivores. They only eat the leaves and flowers of certain eucalyptus trees.
