Koalas even store their food in pouches located in their cheeks. In the wild, they can live about 20 years, weigh about 20 pounds and are about 3 feet in height. The predators of the Koala are the python, owls, eagles, and dingos. These fuzzy animals populations have shrunk dramatically due to excessive hunting in the 1920’s and 1930’s as well as the loss of their natural habitats. Wildlife groups have planted over 1,000 trees in the Koalas’ former forests, but their populations are still smaller and scattered. Because Koalas need a lot of space, about a hundred trees per animal, their population decrease is a pressing problem as Australia's woodlands continue to shrink. Koalas, while not technically a bear, are one of Australia's most interesting mammals and beloved
