Koalas aren’t bears, even though they look like them – they are marsupials. Therefore, they are more closely related to kangaroos and wombats than to any bear. Their two opposable thumbs make it much easier for them to climb. But do you know how many toes a koala has on each front paw in total?

The most striking physical feature of a koala isn’t its fur, but something that immediately catches the eye. A koala’s nose is one of its most iconic features. It also plays an important role in finding food. Do you know exactly what it looks like?

A koala sleeps more than almost any other mammal on Earth. This is mainly down to the highly specialised diet of these aninmals. Eucalyptus leaves are hard to digest and provide little energy, which is why the animal slows down its metabolism as much as possible. In this koala quiz, we have an estimation question for you: On average, how many hours a day does a koala spend sleeping or resting?

As a marsupial, the koala gives birth to its young at a very early stage of development. Baby koalas are born blind, deaf and hairless. Immediately after birth, they must climb into their mother’s pouch, where they will stay for the next few months. You might have an idea of just how tiny a baby koala is at birth. Here’s another estimation question for you: How big is a baby koala right after birth?
