The Koala is a thickset arboreal marsupial herbivore native to Australia.
The Koala is found in coastal regions of eastern and southern Australia, from near Adelaide to the southern part of Cape York Peninsula.
Populations also extend for considerable distances inland in regions with enough moisture to support suitable woodlands. The Koalas of South Australia were largely exterminated during the early part of the 20th century, but the state has since been repopulated with victorian stock.
However, it remains near threatened of extinction, australian roads are very dangerous for the koala populations.
