Koalas are well-known marsupials that live in Australia. Most people can easily recognize these mammals by their greyish fur, fluffy ears, and large black noses. Though some people call them “Koala bears,” they are not related to bears in any way, shape, or form! In fact, their closest relative is the wombat.
These furry marsupials are objectively adorable, with dense fur, round bodies, fluffy ears, and large oval-shaped noses. Their fur is usually grey or grey-brown in color, and their undersides are lighter than their backs.Most of these fuzzy animals are about two and a half feet long, and weigh at least 10 pounds. Males are larger and heavier than their female counterparts. Koalas in different regions also vary slightly in size and color.
