The Koala (phascolarctos cinereus) is an arboreal (tree dwelling), herbivorous (plant eating) marsupial. The word ‘marsupial’ comes from the Latin word marsupium, meaning ‘pouch’. Most, but not all, female marsupials have a permanent pouch in which to raise their young.

When Europeans first came to Australia they thought that Koalas were bears, so they were often called ‘Koala bears’. Not much was known about marsupials at the time of settlement and it’s possible that no European had seen a marsupial prior to that.

Some early settlers also referred to Koalas as ‘monkeys’ and some people still call one of the favoured Koala food trees in the south of Australia ‘Monkey Gums’. However, in an effort to educate people that Koalas are marsupials, we discourage people from using these incorrect names, especially ‘Koala bear’, which is in fairly common usage. The correct term is simply ‘Koala’.
