Koala facts, facts about koalas

Koalas can live as long as 17 years, however male koala bears life expectancy is less than 10 years (due to injuries during fights, dogs and cars). Female koala bears generally live longer. Koalas living in an undisturbed habitat would have a greater life expectancy than those living in suburbia.

Koala habitat - where do koalas live?

Koalas live in eucalypt forests of Eastern and South-Eastern Australia. These are Australian koala bears. Koala habitat requirements where koalas live include the presence of other koalas and preferred food trees. Koalas are found in a range of koala habitats, from coastal islands and tall eucalypt forests to low woodlands inland. Koala habitat quality can be measured by density of the food trees. Koalas do not live in rainforest.
