Phascolarctos cinereus (Goldfuss, 1817)
|
Koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) is a plant-eating marsupial. They live in the eucalyptus forests of eastern Australia.[5] They are the only living species in the family Phascolarctidae.[6] They are related to the wombats.
Koalas are often called koala bears, because a koala looks like a small bear or teddy bear. However, it is not a bear, it is quite a different type of animal.[5][7]
